Equipment
- Large skillet
- Mixing spoon
- Knife
- Cutting board
- Measuring cups
- Pot (for noodles or rice)
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds beef sirloin or tenderloin thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 medium onion finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 8 ounces cremini or button mushrooms sliced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- ¼ cup fresh parsley chopped, for garnish
- 12 ounces egg noodles cooked according to package instructions
Instructions
- Pat beef slices dry. In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, and black pepper. Dredge beef in flour mixture, shaking off excess.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef in batches, cooking 1–2 minutes per side until browned. Remove beef and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and cook 3–4 minutes until softened. Stir in garlic and mushrooms, cooking 5–6 minutes until mushrooms are golden.
- Pour in beef broth, scraping up browned bits. Stir in sour cream, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer 5–7 minutes until sauce thickens slightly.
- Return seared beef to skillet, stirring to coat in sauce. Simmer 2–3 minutes to meld flavors.
- Serve over cooked egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes. Garnish with fresh parsley.
Notes
For a lighter version, use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. Substitute chicken or mushrooms for beef for a different twist. Avoid boiling the sauce after adding sour cream to prevent curdling.
