Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound beef sirloin, cut into thin strips
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Cooked egg noodles or rice for serving

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Once melted, add the beef strips and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté until softened and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
  3. Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their moisture and become tender, approximately 4 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle the flour over the beef and vegetable mixture, stirring well to combine. Cook for another minute to remove the raw flour taste.
  5. Gradually pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, while stirring constantly. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  6. Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and gently stir in the sour cream, creating a smooth and creamy sauce.
  7. Return the cooked beef to the skillet and season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, stirring until well combined and heated through.
  8. Serve the Beef Stroganoff hot over cooked egg noodles or rice.

Notes

For a richer flavor, sear the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. You can substitute chicken or turkey for the beef for a lighter variation. Use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a tangy twist.
