Ground Beef Stroganoff

Ground Beef Stroganoff is a comforting and creamy dish featuring tender ground beef and mushrooms simmered in a savory sour cream sauce, perfect for a quick weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Egg noodles or cooked rice, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and garlic; sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes.
  2. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it apart, until browned and no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  3. Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their moisture and begin to brown, about 5 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle flour over the beef and mushrooms, stirring to combine and cook for 1 minute.
  5. Pour in beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Stir well, bring to a simmer, and cook until the sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
  6. Remove skillet from heat. Stir in sour cream until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve the stroganoff over cooked egg noodles or rice. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

Notes

For an extra creamy texture, gently warm the sour cream before adding and avoid boiling after adding it. Serve with steamed green vegetables for a balanced meal.
