A quick and easy one-pot beef stroganoff with tender beef, sautéed mushrooms, and a rich, creamy sauce perfect for cozy dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound beef sirloin or tenderloin, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounces button mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 8 ounces egg noodles

Instructions

  1. Slice the beef thinly against the grain. Chop the onion finely and mince the garlic. Clean and slice the mushrooms evenly.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the beef in a single layer and sear for 1-2 minutes on each side until browned but not cooked through. Remove and set aside. Repeat with remaining beef.
  3. Lower heat to medium. Add butter and remaining olive oil to the pan. Cook onions for 3-4 minutes until translucent and slightly golden. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant, then stir in mushrooms. Cook for 5-7 minutes until mushrooms release moisture and start browning.
  4. Sprinkle flour and paprika over the mushroom mixture. Stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to cook off raw flour taste and start thickening.
  5. Slowly pour in beef broth while stirring to blend flour evenly. Add Dijon mustard, then return seared beef with juices to the pan. Bring to a gentle simmer.
  6. Add egg noodles directly into the simmering sauce. Stir to submerge noodles. Cover and simmer for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until noodles are tender and sauce is creamy and thickened. Add more broth or water if sauce gets too thick.
  7. Remove pan from heat. Stir in sour cream until fully combined. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed. Do not boil after adding sour cream.
  8. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Slice beef against the grain for tenderness. Do not overcrowd the pan when searing beef to ensure proper browning. Stir noodles frequently to prevent sticking. Add sour cream last and avoid boiling after adding it to prevent curdling. Let stroganoff rest 5 minutes before serving to redistribute juices.
