Ingredients
- For the Beef Stroganoff
- 1 lb top sirloin steak thinly sliced into strips
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
- ½ medium onion finely chopped
- ½ lb brown mushrooms thickly sliced
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1 Tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 cup beef broth
- ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- ½ tsp dijon mustard
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- To Serve
- 1 Tbsp green onion or parsley for garnish
- 8 –12 oz egg noodles optional
Instructions
Sear the Beef
- Heat 2 Tbsp olive oil in a large pan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear beef strips in a single layer for 1 minute per side. Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding. Remove beef and cover to keep warm.
Sauté the Vegetables
- Add butter, onions, and mushrooms. Sauté 6–8 minutes until mushrooms are browned and onions are soft.
Build the Sauce
- Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Stir in flour and cook 1 more minute. Pour in beef broth, scraping the pan, then add heavy cream. Simmer 1–2 minutes until slightly thickened.
Add Sour Cream & Seasonings
- Temper sour cream with a bit of the sauce, then stir it into the pan. Add Worcestershire, mustard, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Finish with Beef
- Return the beef and any juices to the pan. Heat just until warmed through. Serve over noodles and garnish with fresh parsley or green onion.
Notes
Slice beef against the grain for tenderness.
Don’t overcook the beef; sear quickly for best results.
Temper the sour cream to avoid curdling.
