Ingredients
1 pound beef sirloin or tenderloin, cut into thin strips
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup beef broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 cup sour cream
Salt and pepper, to taste
8 ounces egg noodles or rice, for serving
Instructions
Sauté the vegetables: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sliced mushrooms. Cook for about 5 minutes until softened and lightly browned.
Add the garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Cook the beef: Increase the heat to medium-high and add the beef strips to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until the beef is browned, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Make the sauce: Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Allow it to cook for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
Stir in the cream: Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the sour cream until well combined. If the sauce is too thick, add a little more broth until you reach your desired consistency.
Serve: Serve the beef stroganoff over cooked egg noodles or rice, garnishing with fresh parsley if desired.
Notes
Slice the beef thinly for tenderness. Avoid boiling the sauce after adding sour cream to prevent curdling.
