Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Beef sirloin
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 large Yellow onion, diced
• 3 Garlic cloves, minced
• 12 ounces Cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 2 cups Beef broth
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
• 12 ounces Egg noodles

Directions

Step 1

Trim any excess fat from the beef sirloin and slice it into thin strips (about 2 inches long). Season the beef with salt and black pepper, then toss it in the all-purpose flour to coat evenly.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef in batches, searing each side until browned but not fully cooked, about 1-2 minutes per side. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the diced onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute, stirring frequently.

Step 4

Add the sliced cremini mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they're browned and their moisture has evaporated, about 7-8 minutes.

Step 5

Pour in the beef broth and stir in the Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet for added flavor.

Step 6

Lower the heat and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes. Add the browned beef back into the skillet, along with any juices that have accumulated on the plate. Stir to combine and simmer for an additional 10 minutes, allowing the beef to cook through and the sauce to thicken slightly.

Step 7

Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the sour cream until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.

Step 8

Meanwhile, cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and toss with a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.

Step 9

Serve the beef stroganoff over a bed of egg noodles. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and enjoy immediately.
