Ingredients

To make this Easy Ground Beef Stroganoff, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 10oz Egg Noodles
• 1 lb Ground Beef
• 2 Tbsp Avocado Oil
• 1/2 Onion (Diced)
• 8oz Sliced Mushrooms
• 3 Tbsp Butter
• 2 Tbsp Flour
• 2 Cups Beef Broth
• 1 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
• 2/3 Cup Sour Cream
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1/2 tsp Black Pepper

Instructions

Step 1: Make the Noodles

Start by preparing the egg noodles based on the package instructions. While the noodles are cooking, you can start preparing the beef stroganoff.

After draining the noodles, you can toss them with a small amount of butter or olive oil to prevent sticking. Keep the noodles warm until you’re ready to serve the stroganoff.

Step 2: Cook the Ground Beef

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of avocado oil to the pan. Once the oil is hot, add the ground beef.

Cook the beef until it is browned and cooked through, breaking it up into smaller pieces with a spatula as it cooks. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, move the beef towards the outer parts of the pan to make room for the next step. Make sure to leave the excess grease in the pan too.

Step 3: Sauté the Onions and Mushrooms

In the same skillet, add the diced onion. Sauté the onion for about 2-3 minutes until it becomes translucent and fragrant.

Next, add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Continue to sauté the onions and mushrooms together for another 5 minutes, or until the mushrooms have released their moisture and are nicely browned.

Step 4: Make the Roux

Once the onions and mushrooms are cooked, reduce the heat to medium. Add the 3 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Allow the butter to melt completely. Sprinkle the 2 tablespoons of flour over the melted butter and stir continuously to form a roux. Cook the roux for about 2 minutes, stirring consistently.

Step 5: Add the Beef Broth

Slowly pour the 2 cups of beef broth into the skillet, whisking continuously to prevent any lumps from forming.

Step 6: Incorporate the Dijon Mustard and Sour Cream

Once the sauce has thickened, add 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard to the skillet and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to low and add the 2/3 cup of sour cream. Stir until the sour cream is fully incorporated into the sauce. Allow mixture to simmer for 6-8 minutes until thickened.

Step 7: Season and Combine

Season the sauce with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper, adjusting to taste if necessary.

Step 8: Serve and Enjoy

Your Easy Ground Beef Stroganoff is now ready to be served over egg noodles! This dish also pairs wonderfully with rice or mashed potatoes. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives for an extra touch of color and flavor.
