The traditional version can be fussy, but our ground beef take is beautifully simple and just as delicious. If you're looking for a cozy, crowd-pleasing dinner that comes together in one skillet, you've found your recipe. Let's cook!
Ingredients
- 1 lb (450g) ground beef
- 8 oz (225g) cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups beef broth
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 12 oz (340g) egg noodles, cooked according to package directions
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and onion and cook for 5 minutes until golden.
- Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart, for 5–6 minutes until browned. Stir in the garlic and cook 1 minute more.
- Sprinkle the flour over the beef mixture and stir to coat. Cook for 1 minute.
- Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Stir and simmer for 3–4 minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Reduce heat to low and stir in the sour cream until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve the creamy beef mixture over the cooked egg noodles and garnish with fresh parsley.
Chef's Tips & Tricks
- Don't boil the sour cream: Add it at the end over low heat to keep the sauce smooth and prevent curdling.
- Mushroom magic: Sear the mushrooms in a single layer for the best golden-brown flavor.
- Swap the noodles: Serve over rice, mashed potatoes, or zucchini noodles for a twist.
- Thicken as needed: If the sauce is too thin, simmer a few extra minutes; if too thick, add a splash of broth.
