Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb beef sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup full-fat sour cream
  • 2 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 8 oz egg noodles
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prep your ingredients: Slice the beef sirloin against the grain. Chop onions and garlic finely, and clean and slice mushrooms.
  2. Cook the noodles: Boil salted water in a large pot, add egg noodles, and cook until al dente. Drain and set aside with a drizzle of olive oil.
  3. Sear the beef: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear sliced beef until browned (about three minutes), then remove from the skillet.
  4. Add aromatics: In the same skillet, sauté onions, garlic, and mushrooms in the remaining drippings until onions are translucent (about five minutes).
  5. Create the sauce: Pour in beef broth while scraping up browned bits from the pan. Simmer for three minutes before reducing heat.
  6. Stir in creaminess: Slowly mix in sour cream until well combined; simmer gently without boiling. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve: Dish over buttered egg noodles and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
