Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium, diced yellow onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 8 ounces, sliced button or cremini mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 12 ounces egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional) fresh parsley
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet or pan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat from the pan and set the beef aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5-6 minutes or until the mushrooms have released their moisture and are lightly browned.
Sprinkle the flour over the onion and mushroom mixture, stirring well to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Slowly pour in the beef broth while stirring to prevent lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
Lower the heat and stir in the sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet and stir to combine. Let the mixture simmer for 2-3 minutes to heat through.
Serve the stroganoff over the cooked egg noodles and garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
