  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

1 lb beef sirloin or flank steak, thinly sliced

2 tbsp olive oil or butter

1 small onion, finely chopped

8 oz mushrooms, sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tbsp all-purpose flour

1 1/2 cups beef broth

1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp Dijon mustard

3/4 cup sour cream

Salt and black pepper, to taste

Cooked egg noodles or rice, for serving

Fresh parsley, chopped (optional garnish)

Instructions

Heat oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add sliced beef and sear quickly until just browned. Remove and set aside.

In the same skillet, sauté onion and mushrooms until softened, about 5 minutes.

Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in flour and cook 1 minute.

Gradually whisk in beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard.

Simmer until sauce thickens slightly.

Reduce heat to low, stir in sour cream, and return beef to skillet.

Heat gently (do not boil) until warmed through. Season with salt and pepper.

Serve over egg noodles or rice and garnish with parsley.

Notes

Cooking Tips

  • Slice beef against the grain for maximum tenderness.

  • Do not boil after adding sour cream—gentle heat prevents curdling.

  • Use full-fat sour cream for the creamiest texture.


Variations

 

  • Healthier Option: Substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream.

  • Mushroom Lover’s: Double the mushrooms for extra umami.

  • Slow Cooker: Add all ingredients except sour cream; stir it in at the end.

  • Low-Carb: Serve over zucchini noodles or cauliflower rice.
