Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb Top sirloin steak Thinly sliced against the grain
  • 10 oz Cremini mushrooms Sliced
  • 1 medium Yellow onion Finely chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic Minced
  • 4 tbsp Unsalted butter Divided
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 3 tbsp All-purpose flour
  • 2 cups Beef broth Low-sodium
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 cup Sour cream Full-fat, room temperature
  • 12 oz Egg noodles Cooked according to package instructions
  • 2 tbsp Fresh parsley Chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Boil a large pot of salted water and cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  • Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Sear the beef slices in batches for 1 to 2 minutes per side until deeply browned. Remove the beef and set aside.
  • Lower the heat to medium. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Sauté the chopped onions for 3 to 4 minutes until softened, then add the sliced mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms are golden brown and have released their moisture, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom and onion mixture, stirring constantly for 1 minute to cook out the raw flour taste.
  • Gradually pour in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the Dijon mustard. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it thicken for 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the sour cream until completely smooth and heated through. Do not let the sauce boil, or the sour cream may curdle.
  • Return the cooked beef and any resting juices to the skillet, stirring gently to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the creamy beef stroganoff warm over the prepared egg noodles, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.
