Instructions

  1. Step 1: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 12 oz egg noodles and cook for 7-8 minutes until al dente. Drain and toss with 1 tbsp unsalted butter to coat.
  2. Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb thinly sliced sirloin steak and season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Sear for 2 minutes per side until browned but not fully cooked. Remove steak and set aside.
  3. Step 3: In the same skillet, melt 2 tbsp unsalted butter over medium heat. Add 1 medium diced yellow onion, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 8 oz sliced cremini mushrooms. Sauté for 6-7 minutes until softened and fragrant.
  4. Step 4: Stir in 2 tbsp all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute until lightly toasted. Gradually whisk in 2 cups beef broth, scraping the browned bits from the pan. Bring to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  5. Step 5: Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 cup sour cream and 1 tbsp Dijon mustard. Return the steak to the pan and cook gently for 2 minutes until heated through. Adjust seasoning with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
  6. Step 6: Serve the beef stroganoff over the buttered egg noodles and garnish with 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley.

How do I store leftover Rustic Muskegon Beef and Mushroom Stroganoff?

Cool to room temperature within 2 hours, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat covered in a 350°F oven for 10-12 minutes, or microwave at 70% power in 60-second bursts to keep sirloin steak, thinly sliced from drying out.

Can I substitute ingredients in Rustic Muskegon Beef and Mushroom Stroganoff?
