A quick and easy one-pot beef stroganoff recipe with tender beef and creamy sauce served over egg noodles, perfect for a comforting dinner with minimal cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound beef sirloin or tenderloin, thinly sliced
  • 8 ounces egg noodles, wide or medium width
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 cups beef broth, low sodium preferred
  • 1 cup sour cream, full-fat
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon paprika (smoked or sweet)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Pat the beef slices dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef in a single layer and cook 2-3 minutes per side until browned but not fully cooked. Remove beef and set aside.
  3. Lower heat to medium and add remaining butter. Sauté chopped onions for 4-5 minutes until soft and translucent. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  4. Sprinkle flour and paprika over onions and garlic. Stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to cook out raw flour taste.
  5. Slowly pour in beef broth while stirring to prevent lumps. Bring to a gentle boil.
  6. Add egg noodles to the simmering broth mixture. Cover with lid and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  7. Return seared beef to the pot once noodles are tender but firm. Stir to combine and heat through for 2-3 minutes.
  8. Remove pot from heat. Stir in sour cream and Dijon mustard gently until sauce is smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  9. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

Dry the beef before searing to ensure proper browning. Stir noodles gently while cooking to prevent clumping. Always add sour cream off the heat to avoid curdling. Adjust sauce thickness by adding broth or simmering uncovered as needed.
