Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 Egg
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 12 ounces Egg noodles
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 8 ounces Baby bella mushrooms (sliced)
• 1 small Onion (diced)
• 2 cups Beef broth
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, egg, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

Step 2

Shape the mixture into 1-inch meatballs (approximately 20-24 meatballs).

Step 3

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the meatballs in batches and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer the cooked meatballs to a plate and set aside.

Step 4

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet used for the meatballs, melt butter over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and diced onion. Sauté until softened and the mushrooms release their liquid, approximately 5-7 minutes.

Step 6

Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom mixture and stir well to coat. Cook for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 7

Gradually add the beef broth, stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook until it begins to thicken, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Lower the heat to medium-low, then stir in the sour cream, remaining 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper. Mix until combined, but do not allow the sauce to boil.

Step 9

Return the meatballs to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes until the meatballs are heated through and fully cooked.

Step 10

Serve the meatballs and sauce over the cooked egg noodles. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and enjoy!
