One Pan Beef Stroganoff

The High-Heat Sear

Heat in a deep skillet over high heat...

• 1 tbsp cooking oil or butter
• 1.5 to 2 lbs sirloin or flank steak, thinly sliced

Sear in a single layer for 1–2 minutes until browned. Immediately transfer to a plate and set aside.

The Stroganoff Sauce

In the same skillet over medium-high heat, cook for 5–6 minutes until softened...

• 8 oz cremini or button mushrooms, broken into chunks
• 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced

Stir in and cook for 1 minute...

• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 3 tbsp all-purpose flour

Pour in while scraping up browned bits, then bring to a boil...

• 4 cups low-sodium beef broth
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard

The Noodles & Finish

Stir in, cover, and simmer over medium-low heat for 8–10 minutes until tender...

• 8 oz wide egg noodles (uncooked)

Turn off heat entirely and whisk in until smooth...

• 3/4 cup sour cream (room temperature)
• 2 tbsp heavy cream or cream cheese (optional)

Note: Turning off the heat before adding sour cream keeps the sauce smooth and prevents curdling.

Fold the seared steak and juices back into the pan to warm through. Season with salt and pepper to taste and fresh parsley for garnish.
