Total Time:40 minutes
Yield:4 servings
Ingredients
Beef and Seasoning
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound beef sirloin, sliced thin
Salt and pepper, to taste
Vegetables and Aromatics
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
Broth and Flavorings
1 cup beef broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Pasta and Dairy
8 ounces egg noodles
1/2 cup sour cream
Garnish
Fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
Brown the beef: Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Season the thinly sliced beef sirloin with salt and pepper, then add it to the pot. Brown the beef on all sides, about 5 minutes, ensuring it is nicely seared. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.
Sauté aromatics and mushrooms: In the same pot, add chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until softened and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Then add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and begin to brown, about 5 minutes.
Add broth and seasonings: Stir in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer to combine the flavors.
Cook noodles with beef: Add the egg noodles to the pot along with the browned beef. Cover the pot and cook for 12 minutes, or until the noodles are tender and have absorbed the flavors.
Finish with sour cream and serve: Remove the pot from heat and stir in the sour cream until fully incorporated, creating a creamy sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
Use thinly sliced beef sirloin for quick and tender cooking.
Make sure not to overcook the noodles to avoid mushiness; check for tenderness at 12 minutes.
Sour cream can be substituted with Greek yogurt for a tangier twist.
For a lower fat option, use low-fat sour cream or omit altogether.
Fresh parsley adds color and a bright flavor, but you can substitute with chives or thyme.
