In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
Form the mixture into 1-inch meatballs and set aside on a plate or tray.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs in batches, browning them on all sides (about 5-6 minutes total). Remove the browned meatballs and set aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until soft, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until softened and golden, about 5-6 minutes.
Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom mixture and stir well to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually whisk in the beef broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it thicken slightly, 3-4 minutes.
Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the sour cream, Dijon mustard, and paprika until smooth.
Return the browned meatballs to the skillet, stirring gently to coat them in the sauce. Cover and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through.
While the meatballs simmer, cook the egg noodles or rice according to package instructions. Drain and set aside if using noodles.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the meatballs and sauce over egg noodles or rice. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
