Ingredients
Scale
Beef and Seasoning
- 1 lb beef sirloin (or tenderloin, cut into thin strips)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
Cooking Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 8 oz mushrooms (sliced)
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Garnish and Serving
- Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
- Egg noodles or rice (for serving)
Instructions
- Prepare the Beef: Season the beef strips evenly with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat to prepare for searing.
- Cook the Beef: Place the beef strips in the hot skillet in a single layer and sear them for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned but not fully cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside to keep warm.
- Cook the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the finely chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds to release its aroma. Then, add the sliced mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes until they become browned and the moisture evaporates.
- Make the Sauce: Stir in the Dijon mustard, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and paprika. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for roughly 5 minutes to blend flavors. Lower the heat, then stir in the sour cream thoroughly to create a creamy sauce. Return the seared beef strips to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to reheat the beef and meld the flavors.
- Serve: Prepare egg noodles or rice according to package instructions. Serve the creamy beef stroganoff over the cooked noodles or rice. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley to add a pop of color and freshness. Enjoy your delicious and comforting homemade Beef Stroganoff!
Notes
- For best results, use tender cuts of beef such as sirloin or tenderloin.
- Do not overcook the beef during searing; it should be browned but still slightly undercooked as it will finish cooking in the sauce.
- Sour cream should be added off the heat or on low heat to prevent curdling.
- You can substitute egg noodles with rice or mashed potatoes as preferred.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute sour cream with a plant-based alternative.
