Ingredients
- 1 lb beef sirloin or tenderloin thinly sliced into strips
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 medium onion finely chopped
- 8 oz mushrooms cremini or white, sliced
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 cup beef broth
- ¾ cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
- Cooked egg noodles rice, or mashed potatoes for serving
Instructions
- Cook the Beef:
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef strips in batches, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned. Remove and set aside.
- Sauté the Vegetables:
- In the same skillet, melt butter with the remaining olive oil. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened. Stir in the mushrooms and cook until browned and their liquid has evaporated. Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
- Make the Sauce:
- Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir to coat. Slowly add the beef broth while stirring, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, until slightly thickened.
- Finish the Stroganoff:
- Lower the heat and stir in the sour cream, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Return the cooked beef to the skillet and simmer until everything is heated through. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
- Serve:
- Spoon the stroganoff over cooked egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
Notes
- For extra richness, use heavy cream in place of some sour cream.
- Sirloin, ribeye, or even ground beef can be used depending on preference.
- You can also substitute Greek yogurt for a lighter option.
