- 1.5 lbs beef sirloin or ribeye, sliced thin against grain
- 8 oz mushrooms (cremini or white button), sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 large onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1 cup sour cream (full-fat)
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 8 oz egg noodles (wide or extra-wide)
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 bay leaf
- Fresh parsley, chopped
- Extra sour cream for serving
- Slice beef against grain into thin strips. Pat dry and season with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear half the beef 2 minutes per side. Transfer to plate. Repeat with remaining beef.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining oil and mushrooms. Cook undisturbed 3-4 minutes until golden. Stir and cook 2-3 minutes more.
- Add onion and cook 4-5 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook 30-60 seconds.
- Add butter and let melt. Sprinkle flour over vegetables and stir constantly 1-2 minutes.
- Stir in tomato paste and Worcestershire sauce. Cook 1 minute.
- Pour in beef broth gradually while stirring and scraping up browned bits. Add thyme and bay leaf.
- Bring to boil. Add egg noodles and press down as they soften. Cook 8-10 minutes, stirring every 2-3 minutes.
- Remove from heat. Return beef to pan. Stir in sour cream and Dijon mustard until smooth.
- Adjust seasoning. Discard bay leaf. Garnish with parsley and serve with extra sour cream.
Notes
- For Tender Beef: Always slice against the grain and don’t overcook during searing
- Prevent Curdling: Remove from heat before adding sour cream
- Thicker Sauce: Let it simmer a bit longer; the noodles release starch that thickens naturally
- Thinner Sauce: Add beef broth or milk to reach desired consistency
- Storage: Refrigerate up to 3 days; reheat gently with added liquid
- Not Freezer-Friendly: Sour cream separates when frozen
