Ingredients

Scale

Beef and Vegetables

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Sauce

  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Pasta

  • 8 oz egg noodles
  • 2 tbsp butter (for noodles, optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions until al dente, usually about 7-8 minutes. Drain the noodles and optionally toss with butter for richness. Set aside.
  2. Cook the ground beef: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked and no longer pink. Drain excess fat if needed.
  3. Sauté mushrooms and onions: Add the sliced mushrooms, chopped onion, and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Cook until the mushrooms are tender and the onions are translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Make the sauce: Sprinkle the flour over the beef and mushroom mixture and stir well to combine, cooking for about 1 minute to remove raw flour taste. Gradually add the beef broth while stirring to prevent lumps. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the mixture to simmer gently until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add the sour cream: Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the sour cream until smooth and creamy. Avoid boiling after adding sour cream to prevent curdling.
  6. Combine and serve: Spoon the beef stroganoff sauce over the prepared egg noodles and serve immediately garnished with fresh chopped parsley if desired.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use full-fat sour cream.
  • You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
  • Be careful not to boil the sauce after adding sour cream to prevent curdling.
  • Fresh parsley or chives make an excellent garnish.
  • This dish can be prepared in under 30 minutes, making it great for quick weeknight dinners.
