Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds beef chuck roast, cut into thin strips
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz cremini or white mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup beef broth (low-sodium preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup sour cream, full fat
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 12 oz wide egg noodles
  • Water and salt for boiling noodles

Instructions

  1. Slice the beef into thin strips about 1/4-inch thick. Chop the onion finely and slice the mushrooms. Mince the garlic cloves.
  2. Place the beef strips, chopped onion, garlic, and mushrooms into the slow cooker. Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and sprinkle smoked paprika, salt, and pepper over everything. Stir gently to combine.
  3. Set the slow cooker to low and cover with the lid. Cook for 6 to 7 hours until the beef is tender and flavors meld.
  4. About 20 minutes before the stroganoff is done, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions (7-9 minutes) until tender but not mushy. Drain and set aside.
  5. In a small bowl, combine the sour cream and flour until smooth.
  6. When the slow cooker time is up, stir the sour cream mixture into the pot. Turn the slow cooker to high and cook uncovered for another 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to thicken the sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  7. Serve the creamy beef stroganoff over the warm egg noodles. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

Slice beef against the grain for tenderness. Avoid lifting the slow cooker lid during cooking to retain moisture. Mix sour cream and flour before adding to prevent curdling. If sauce is too thin, thicken with extra flour and water; if too thick, add beef broth. For gluten-free, substitute flour and noodles accordingly. For dairy-free, use coconut cream instead of sour cream.
