Ingredients
Scale
Meat and Coating
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 pounds beef sirloin steak sliced into thin strips
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
Pasta
- 1 pound egg noodles
Vegetables
- 1 medium white onion sliced
- 8 ounces sliced mushrooms
Sauce and Seasonings
- 1/4 cup salted butter
- 3 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Beef: Slice the sirloin against the grain into thin strips. Dust the slices evenly with the all-purpose flour and set aside to coat.
- Cook the Noodles: Cook the egg noodles according to the package directions until tender. Drain well and set aside.
- Sauté Vegetables: Heat olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onions and mushrooms, sautéing until tender, about 7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Brown the Beef: Without cleaning the skillet, add the salted butter and let it melt over medium-high heat. Add the floured steak strips and cook until browned on all sides, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Simmer Sauce: Return the sautéed onions and mushrooms to the skillet with the beef. Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Allow to simmer and thicken for about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add Cream and Mustard: Stir in the sour cream and Dijon mustard until fully incorporated and smooth.
- Combine and Season: Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet and stir to combine everything evenly. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Serve: Serve the beef stroganoff hot over egg noodles, or optionally over mashed potatoes or cooked rice for variety.
Notes
- Steak Options: For richer flavor, try boneless ribeye or beef tenderloin cuts with more marbling instead of sirloin.
- Ground Beef Variation: Substitute ground beef by browning it first and draining excess fat, then add flour and cook until dissolved before proceeding.
- Serving Variations: Besides egg noodles, enjoy this stroganoff with pasta of choice, mashed potatoes, rice, or for a lighter option, zucchini noodles or mashed cauliflower.
