Ingredients
Scale
Beef and Sauce
- 1 lb beef sirloin or tenderloin, cut into strips
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup sour cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
Pasta
- 8 oz egg noodles
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients together to streamline the cooking process.
- Cook Egg Noodles: Boil salted water and cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until tender. Drain the noodles and set aside.
- Brown the Beef: Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef strips and sauté until browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté Onions and Garlic: In the same skillet, add the chopped onions and minced garlic. Cook until the onions turn translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Cook Mushrooms: Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté until they soften, approximately 5 minutes.
- Add Liquids and Simmer: Stir in beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for about 5 minutes to blend the flavors and reduce slightly.
- Finish the Sauce and Combine: Reduce the heat to low, then stir in the sour cream until fully incorporated. Return the browned beef to the skillet and heat through without boiling to prevent curdling. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve: Plate the cooked egg noodles and spoon the beef stroganoff mixture over the top. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
- Use tender cuts of beef like sirloin or tenderloin for best texture.
- Do not boil the sauce after adding sour cream to prevent curdling.
- For extra flavor, garnish with fresh parsley or chives.
- To make it gluten-free, substitute egg noodles with gluten-free pasta.
