Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1/2 medium white onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 8 oz wide egg noodles
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste


Instructions

  1. Brown the Beef: In a skillet over medium-high heat, season the ground beef with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until it is almost cooked through.
  2. Sauté Vegetables: Add chopped onion, minced garlic, sliced mushrooms, and dried thyme to the beef. Cook together until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef and vegetable mixture to a plate and set aside.
  3. Make the Roux: Add butter to the same pan. Once melted, stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly to create a roux and eliminate the raw flour taste.
  4. Add Broth and Noodles: Slowly whisk in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Add the wide egg noodles, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook while stirring occasionally until the noodles are al dente, about 8-10 minutes.
  5. Combine and Finish: Return the beef and vegetable mixture to the pan. Stir in the sour cream until well combined. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately. Enjoy your comforting stroganoff!

Notes

  • Use lean ground beef to reduce excess grease in the dish.
  • Feel free to substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt for a tangier and lighter option.
  • Make sure to stir the noodles occasionally to prevent sticking as they cook in the broth.
  • Fresh mushrooms can be replaced with canned mushrooms if pressed for time, but fresh provides better texture and flavor.
  • This recipe is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner since it uses just one pan and requires about 30 minutes total.
