Cozy Up with Creamy Beef Stroganoff over Egg Noodles Recipe
Servings: 4-6
Ingredients:
- 1 pound beef strips (sirloin or ribeye)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 ounces egg noodles
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- Chopped fresh dill, for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their moisture and start to brown, about 5 minutes.
- Add the beef broth, tomato paste, Dijon mustard, paprika, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine.
- Add the browned beef back to the skillet and stir to coat with the sauce. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes or until the sauce has thickened.
- Stir in the heavy cream and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until the sauce has reached your desired consistency.
- To assemble the dish, place cooked egg noodles on a serving plate or bowl. Top with the beef and sauce mixture. Garnish with chopped parsley and a sprinkle of paprika, if desired.
Tips and Variations:
- Use fresh mushrooms for the best flavor.
- Add some diced bell peppers or diced tomatoes to the sauce for added flavor and color.
- Substitute the heavy cream with half-and-half or Greek yogurt for a lighter version.
- Serve with steamed vegetables or a side salad for a well-rounded meal.
