Description
A classic comfort-food dinner made in one skillet with tender beef, mushrooms, and egg noodles coated in a rich, creamy stroganoff sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 lb sirloin or flank steak, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil or butter
- 1 small onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 3 cups beef broth
- 8 oz egg noodles
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tbsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add sliced beef, season with salt, pepper, and paprika, and sear quickly until browned. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add onion and mushrooms. Cook 4–5 minutes until softened.
- Add garlic and cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Stir in Worcestershire sauce and beef broth, scraping up browned bits.
- Add egg noodles, stir to submerge, and simmer 8–10 minutes until noodles are tender.
- Lower heat and stir in sour cream. Add cornstarch slurry if thicker sauce is desired.
- Return beef to skillet and simmer 2–3 minutes until heated through.
- Garnish with parsley and serve hot.
Notes
- Slice beef against the grain for tenderness.
- Do not boil after adding sour cream to prevent curdling.
- Serve with crusty bread or a side salad.
- Greek yogurt can be used instead of sour cream for a lighter option.
