Ingredients
- Ground beef
- Onion, diced
- Garlic, minced
- Sliced mushrooms (fresh or canned)
- Beef broth
- Worcestershire sauce
- Dijon mustard (optional)
- All-purpose flour
- Sour cream
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Egg noodles (or pasta of choice)
- Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
-
Cook the beef: In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it up as it cooks. Drain excess grease.
-
Sauté vegetables: Add onion and mushrooms to the skillet. Cook until softened, about 5–7 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook another minute.
-
Make the sauce: Sprinkle flour over the beef and vegetables; stir to coat. Pour in beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard (if using). Simmer for 5–6 minutes, stirring until the sauce thickens.
-
Add sour cream: Reduce heat to low and stir in sour cream until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Cook noodles: While sauce simmers, cook egg noodles per package instructions. Drain and stir into the sauce or serve with sauce spooned on top.
-
Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving, if desired.
Notes
-
Substitute ground turkey or chicken for a lighter version.
-
Add a splash of heavy cream for extra richness.
-
Use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a protein boost.
-
Mix in spinach or peas at the end for added vegetables.
-
For freezing, leave out sour cream and add after reheating to prevent curdling.
