Ground Beef Stroganoff
A quick and creamy dish made with ground beef, mushrooms, onions, and a rich sauce served over noodles or rice, perfect for busy weeknights.
Ingredients
For the Stroganoff
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 8 ounces egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Preparation
- Start by cooking the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Once done, drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms soften and release their moisture.
- Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the ground beef. Cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks.
- Sprinkle flour over the beef and stir to combine, cooking for about 1 minute to eliminate the raw flour taste.
- Pour in the beef broth and add Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Allow it to simmer for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream, mixing until thoroughly incorporated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet, tossing to coat them evenly in the sauce.
- Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes
For a thicker sauce, you can add a little more flour or let it simmer for longer. For lighter options, consider using ground turkey or chicken instead of beef.
