Description

Easy Beef Stroganoff is a quick and delicious version of the classic Russian dish. Made with tender beef, a creamy mushroom sauce, and served over egg noodles, it’s the perfect comforting dinner for any night of the week.


Ingredients

1 lb beef sirloin or tenderloin, thinly sliced into strips
2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
8 oz mushrooms, sliced
1 cup beef broth
1 cup sour cream
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Egg noodles or rice, for serving


Instructions

  • Sear the Beef: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef strips and cook until browned. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  • Sauté Aromatics and Mushrooms: Add onion and garlic to the skillet. Cook until onion is translucent. Stir in mushrooms and cook until tender.
  • Prepare the Sauce: Sprinkle flour over the mixture, stirring to combine. Gradually add beef broth, stirring to prevent lumps. Simmer until thickened.
  • Combine Ingredients: Return beef to the skillet. Add sour cream and Dijon mustard, stirring well. Simmer until heated through.
  • Season and Serve: Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve over egg noodles or rice, garnished with parsley.

Notes

  • Substitute beef with chicken or pork for variation.
  • Use Greek yogurt or crème fraîche in place of sour cream for a tangy twist.
  • Add smoked paprika or Worcestershire sauce for deeper flavor.
