Ingredients
Scale
Protein:
- 1 pound (454 grams) beef sirloin or tenderloin, cut into thin strips
Dairy and Sauce Components:
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup beef broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Vegetables and Seasonings:
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 8 ounces (226 grams) mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Salt and pepper to taste
Noodles:
- 12 ounces (340 grams) egg noodles
Garnish:
- Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add beef strips and sear for 4-6 minutes, rotating to ensure even browning. Transfer browned beef to a separate plate.
- In the same skillet, introduce remaining olive oil and sauté onions until they become translucent and slightly golden, approximately 3-4 minutes.
- Incorporate minced garlic and sliced mushrooms into the onion mixture. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms release their moisture and turn golden brown.
- Pour beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard into the skillet. Stir thoroughly and allow the mixture to simmer gently, creating a rich, flavorful base.
- Reduce heat to low and reintroduce the browned beef to the skillet. Fold in sour cream, creating a creamy consistency. Season with salt and pepper, ensuring even distribution of flavors.
- Simultaneously, prepare egg noodles in a separate pot of boiling salted water. Cook for 7-9 minutes until tender, then drain completely.
- Plate the egg noodles and generously ladle the beef stroganoff over them. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant, aromatic finish. Serve immediately while hot.
Notes
- Opt for lean beef cuts like sirloin or tenderloin to reduce fat and enhance the dish’s tenderness without compromising flavor.
- Swap traditional egg noodles with zucchini noodles or cauliflower rice for a low-carb, gluten-free alternative that maintains the dish’s delicious essence.
- Use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream to boost protein content and decrease calories while preserving the creamy texture and tangy taste.
- Keep mushrooms sliced uniformly for even cooking and consistent texture, ensuring each bite delivers balanced flavor and moisture.
