Beef Stroganoff
Beef Stroganoff features strips of sirloin or ribeye lightly floured and browned, then simmered in a creamy mushroom sauce flavored with Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and thyme. The sauce is thickened with flour and enriched with sour cream for a velvety texture. Served over egg noodles or mashed potatoes, it delivers tender beef and earthy mushrooms in a rich, tangy sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds sirloin steak or ribeye
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour divided
- ½ teaspoon seasoned salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter salted
- 1 small onion diced
- 8 ounces mushrooms sliced, white or cremini
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 14.5 ounces beef broth
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- ½ tablespoon Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon thyme dried leaves
- ½ cup sour cream
- egg noodles pasta, or mashed potatoes for serving
Instructions
- Pat the steak dry with a paper towel and cut it into ½-thick strips or 1-inch cubes.
- Season the beef with seasoned salt and pepper, then toss with 1 tablespoon of flour. Shake off any excess flour.
- In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown beef in small batches for about 1 minute on each side until lightly browned. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Reduce the heat to medium. Add butter and onion to the pan, cooking until the onion is softened, about 4-5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and garlic, continuing to cook until softened, about 4 minutes.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour to the mushroom mixture and cook for one minute.
- Add the broth, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, and thyme. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and let simmer uncovered for 5 minutes.
- Add the browned beef and any juices on the plate to the pot with the sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes or until the beef is heated through.
- Remove from the heat and stir in sour cream. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve over egg noodles and garnish with parsley if desired.
Notes
- Choose striploin or ribeye for best flavor and tenderness.
- Brown beef in small batches to achieve good sear without overcooking.
- Do not fully cook beef during browning; it will finish cooking in sauce.
- Use a cornstarch and water slurry to thicken sauce if needed.
- Stir sour cream in off heat to prevent curdling.
- Store leftovers refrigerated for up to 4 days or freeze up to 4 months.
