A quick and easy creamy beef and mushroom stroganoff recipe perfect for cozy dinners, featuring tender beef strips, earthy mushrooms, and a velvety sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (450 grams) beef sirloin or ribeye, thinly sliced
  • 8 ounces (225 grams) cremini or button mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups (360 ml) beef broth
  • ½ cup (120 ml) sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
  • Egg noodles or pasta of choice, cooked according to package instructions

Instructions

  1. Prepare the ingredients: Slice the beef into thin strips about ¼ inch thick. Clean and slice mushrooms, chop onions finely, and mince garlic. Set aside.
  2. Cook the beef: Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef strips in a single layer and cook about 2 minutes per side until browned but not fully cooked. Remove beef and set aside.
  3. Sauté the vegetables: In the same skillet, add remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Cook onions until softened and translucent, about 4 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook until browned, about 4 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Make the sauce base: Sprinkle flour over mushroom mixture and stir well. Cook 1-2 minutes to remove raw flour taste, stirring constantly.
  5. Add broth and seasonings: Gradually pour in beef broth while stirring. Add Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Simmer 3-5 minutes until sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
  6. Finish stroganoff: Return beef and juices to skillet. Stir to combine and warm through. Remove from heat and gently stir in sour cream, avoiding boiling.
  7. Serve: Spoon stroganoff over cooked egg noodles or pasta. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

Add sour cream off the heat to prevent curdling. Brown beef in batches to get a good sear. Use room temperature beef for even cooking. For gluten-free, substitute flour with cornstarch or gluten-free flour blend and use gluten-free pasta. For a lighter version, swap sour cream with Greek yogurt or crème fraîche. If sauce is too thick, add more broth or water; if too thin, simmer longer but watch carefully.
