Ingredients
  

1 lb beef sirloin, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, finely chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

8 oz mushrooms, sliced (button or cremini)

1 cup beef broth

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

½ cup sour cream

Salt and pepper to taste

8 oz egg noodles

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Cook the Noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions until they reach an al dente texture. Once cooked, drain the noodles in a colander and set them aside.

    Sauté the Beef: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add the thinly sliced beef to the hot skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the meat. Sear each slice for about 2-3 minutes on each side until nicely browned. Once browned, remove the beef from the skillet and place it in a bowl, covering it to keep warm.

      Cook the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until it becomes translucent. Then, add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms have softened and released their juices, which should take about 5 minutes.

        Make the Sauce: Pour in the beef broth and add the Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard. Stir the mixture well to combine all the ingredients. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and let it reduce slightly for about 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

          Combine Beef and Sauce: Reduce the heat to low, and return the seared beef to the skillet with the simmering sauce. Carefully stir in the sour cream until it’s fully integrated, creating a creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste. Heat the mixture gently until everything is warmed through, but avoid boiling to prevent the sour cream from curdling.

            Serve with Noodles: In a large serving bowl, combine the drained egg noodles with the beef stroganoff mixture. Gently toss the noodles to ensure they are evenly coated with the rich sauce.

              Garnish and Enjoy: Serve your comforting beef stroganoff hot, garnished generously with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor. Relish in a warm, satisfying bowl of deliciousness!
