Easy Beef Stroganoff

Recipe View Gather all your ingredients to ensure a seamless cooking experience.

Recipe View In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and chopped onion, then sauté until softened and lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and set aside, reserving the skillet for later use.

Recipe View Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a vigorous boil. Add the egg noodles and cook until al dente, approximately 7 to 9 minutes. Drain the noodles thoroughly.

Recipe View While the noodles are cooking, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and sauté, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and crumbly, about 7 to 9 minutes. Drain off any excess grease.

Recipe View Sprinkle the flour over the browned ground beef and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute to create a roux.

Recipe View Gradually pour in the beef broth, stirring continuously to prevent lumps from forming. Cook until the sauce thickens slightly, about 2 to 4 minutes.

Recipe View Return the mushroom and onion mixture to the skillet. Stir in the sour cream, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is heated through and the flavors have melded, about 2 to 3 minutes. Be careful not to boil.

Recipe View Serve the creamy beef stroganoff immediately over the cooked egg noodles. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Enjoy!
