Description
Ground beef and mushrooms in a creamy sour cream sauce, with the egg noodles cooked right in the pan. One pan, about 35 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb lean ground beef (90% lean)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 1/2 cups low-sodium beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 8 oz wide egg noodles
- 3/4 cup full-fat sour cream, at room temperature
- Chopped fresh parsley, to serve
Instructions
- Heat a large, deep skillet (12 inch) over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper, and cook, breaking it up, until browned and no pink remains, 6 to 7 minutes. Spoon off excess fat if there is more than a tablespoon.
- Add the butter, onion and mushrooms. Cook, stirring often, until the mushrooms have released their liquid and started to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Sprinkle the flour over everything and stir for 1 minute so no dry flour remains.
- Slowly pour in the broth while stirring, then stir in the Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil.
- Stir in the egg noodles, pressing them down into the liquid. Lower the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring every 2 minutes, until the noodles are tender and the sauce has thickened. Add a splash of broth if it gets too thick before the noodles are done.
- Take the pan off the heat. Stir a few spoonfuls of the hot sauce into the sour cream in a small bowl, then stir the sour cream into the pan.
- Taste for salt and pepper, sprinkle with parsley and serve.
Notes
- Do not let the sauce boil once the sour cream is in, or it can curdle.
- With 80% lean beef, drain all but about a tablespoon of fat after browning.
- Leftovers keep 3 to 4 days in the fridge. Add a splash of broth or milk when reheating.
