Ingredients
- 12 oz egg noodles
- 1 lb sirloin steak, thinly sliced
- 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced

- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb thinly sliced sirloin steak and cook for 2-3 minutes until browned but not fully cooked through. Remove steak and set aside.
