A creamy beef stroganoff makes the perfect comfort meal in just 30 minutes. Tender beef, sauteed with onions and mushrooms, and simmered in a rich and creamy gravy. This is a dish that packs flavor and comfort, while being so effortless!
- 2 Tbsp cooking oil canola or olive oil
- 1½ lbs beef sirloin thin strips
- 1 small onion sliced or diced
- 10 oz mushrooms sliced
stroganoff sauce-
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 cups regular beef broth
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1½ tsp dijon mustard
Heat a large skillet with oil. Once the oil is hot, add half of the beef strips and sear on both sides for 2 minutes, until the beef is halfway cooked through. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and remove from the heat. Repeat with the remaining meat. Remove from the pan and cover to keep warm.
Once all the meat is cooked, add the onions and mushrooms to the pan and cook until tender.
To the same pan, add butter and garlic. Stir in the flour until all the clumps are gone.
In a separate bowl, whisk together beef broth, sour cream, and Dijon mustard. Add the liquid mixture to the pan and bring to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Cook until the beef is reheated and serve.
- Cook the beef in batches to prevent it from steaming and being chewy, rather than tender.
- Season as you go to have a flavorful dish with seasoning in every bite.
- Serve stroganoff over egg noodles, white rice, or fluffy mashed potatoes.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a pan until warmed through and serve.
