Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 1 pound ground beef 93%
  • ½ medium onion roughly chopped (about 1 cup)
  • 8 ounces baby bella mushrooms cleaned and thinly sliced (aka cremini mushrooms)
  • 3 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour or your favorite gluten free flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ cup sour cream full-fat
  • 3 cups egg noodles uncooked (5 ounces)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice or apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley minced

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
  2. Add 1 pound of ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up as you cook to avoid large chunks, about 5 minutes. Transfer the now-cooked meat onto a platter using a slotted spoon and set it aside.
  3. Continue with the pan on medium-high heat, adding the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the ½ cup chopped onions and 8 ounces of sliced cremini mushrooms and saute until the liquid from the mushrooms has evaporated, about 6-8 minutes. Reduce the heat if needed to avoid burning. Add 3 cloves of minced garlic and saute for 30 seconds.
  4. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour over the cooked vegetables and stir continuously for 30-45 seconds, until the flour turns golden brown.
  5. Gradually pour in 2 cups of beef broth, stirring frequently to deglaze the pan (scraping the browned bits at the bottom) and incorporate the fond. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook until the sauce is thickened about 3-4 minutes.
  6. Add the now-browned ground beef, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper to the skillet. Give it a good stir.
  7. Stir in 3 cups of egg noodles and simmer, covered, on low heat for 10 - 12 minutes until tender, stirring occasionally.
  8. Off the heat, stir in ½ cup sour cream and a tablespoon (or more to taste) lemon juice (or apple cider vinegar), if using. Adjust the seasoning to your desired taste.
  9. When ready to serve, sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley.

  • A note on sour cream: For the creamiest texture, I recommend using full-fat sour cream, but a low-fat one can also be used. You can substitute cream cheese (by mixing 3-4 tablespoons with some of the liquid and adding it to the pan) for an even creamier taste. If you want a lighter alternative, while not traditional, you can use Greek yogurt, but keep in mind the taste will be tangier, and the texture will be less creamy.
