Comforting Russian classic beef stroganoff brings hearty home-style flavors to dinner tables worldwide. Creamy mushroom sauce mingles with tender ground beef over egg noodles, creating a satisfying meal you’ll crave again and again.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Protein:

  • 1 pound (1 lb) lean ground beef

Vegetables and Aromatics:

  • 8 ounces (8 oz) fresh button mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Sauce and Seasoning Ingredients:

  • 1 cup low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon (1 tbsp) Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon (1 tsp) Dijon mustard

Pasta:

  • 8 ounces (8 oz) egg noodles

Instructions

  1. Sizzle the ground beef in a spacious skillet over medium-high heat until thoroughly browned, ensuring to eliminate any surplus grease.
  2. Incorporate sliced mushrooms, diced onions, and minced garlic into the skillet, sautéing until vegetables become translucent and tender.
  3. Pour in the rich beef broth, velvety sour cream, tangy Worcestershire sauce, and zesty Dijon mustard, blending ingredients seamlessly.
  4. Allow the mixture to gently simmer, letting flavors meld and sauce thicken for approximately 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. While sauce develops, prepare egg noodles in a separate pot according to package guidelines, cooking until perfectly al dente.
  6. Once noodles are cooked and sauce reaches desired consistency, plate the steaming noodles and generously ladle the savory beef stroganoff directly over the top.
  7. Garnish with optional fresh chopped parsley or a sprinkle of black pepper for an enhanced presentation and added flavor complexity.

Notes

  • Trim excess fat from ground beef for a leaner dish without compromising flavor.
  • Consider using low-fat sour cream or Greek yogurt for a healthier alternative that maintains creamy texture.
  • Swap traditional egg noodles with whole wheat or gluten-free options to accommodate dietary restrictions.
  • Add fresh chopped parsley or chives as a vibrant garnish to enhance visual appeal and bring a fresh herbal note to the rich stroganoff.
