Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pound ribeye steak, trimmed of excess fat and cut into 2-by-1/2-inch strips
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium yellow onion, sliced
8 ounces white button mushrooms, quartered
7 ounces shiitakes, caps sliced (stems removed and discarded)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 cups beef broth or beef stock
10 ounces medium or wide egg noodles
1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped chives, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Season the beef with 1 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook, untouched, until starting to turn brown in some spots, about 1 minute. Use tongs to flip the pieces and continue cooking until deep golden brown but still undercooked in the center, about 1 minute (the beef will finish cooking in the sauce). Transfer the beef to a bowl and return the skillet to the stovetop on medium-high.
  • Add 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet. Add the onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally to scrape up the browned bits in the pan, until the onions are softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons butter, the button mushrooms, shiitakes and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally scraping up any browned bits, until the mushrooms have released some liquid and are starting to crisp up, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the wine and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until evaporated, about 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir until incorporated. Fold in the sour cream, Dijon, Worcestershire sauce and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Pour in the beef broth and stir until smooth. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, while the sauce reduces, cook the egg noodles according to the package directions for al dente. Drain and toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the chopped parsley and chives.
  • Fold the beef and any accumulated juices from the bowl into the sauce and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beef is cooked through but still slightly pink on the inside, about 1 minute.
  • Divide the noodles between 4 bowls and top with the sauce and beef. Sprinkle with more chives, if desired.

Provided by Casey Rooney

Categories     Dinner     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tbsp olive oil (vegetable oil or canola oil are also fine)
1 lb. flank steak, sliced into thin strips against the grain (See Note 1)
2 tbsp butter
2 cups fresh mushrooms, sliced (white button mushrooms, cremini, baby portobellos, are all great)
2 cups onions, sliced (about 1 medium onion)
1 tbsp garlic, minced (the BEST garlic chopper!)
1 tsp salt, plus more to taste
2 cups beef stock
1/2 cup whole milk Greek yogurt (See Note 2)
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
3 tbsp all purpose flour
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 tsp dried thyme leaves)
1/2 tsp dry mustard (optional)
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 lb. egg noodles (for serving)
fresh parsley or chives for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large pot of boiling water, add egg noodles. Cook until al dente, according to package directions.
  • While the noodles are boiling, heat one tablespoon oil a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • When oil is hot, add beef to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2 minutes on one side without stirring or tossing the meat. You want it to get a nice sear on one side. After 2 minutes, toss meat and cook 1 minute more (it's ok if the meat isn't completely cooked yet). Transfer meat to a plate and cover with foil.
  • Turn pan down to medium heat and melt butter. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, 2-3 minutes until onions are slightly softened. Then add garlic and mushrooms and cook 2 minutes more. Stir often to make sure garlic doesn't burn.
  • In a large measuring cup or small bowl, whisk together beef stock, flour, thyme, Worcestershire sauce and dry mustard (if using). Add mixture to the pan, scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan. Turn heat up a bit and bring to a boil. Cook 3-4 minutes until sauce has thickened.
  • Turn to low heat. Add in Greek yogurt and stir to combine. Then, add in reserved beef and all the juices from the plate. Cook 2-3 minutes more, stirring often, until beef is cooked and everything is heated through. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.
  • At this point, you can either toss your egg noodles right in with the beef and mushroom sauce, or just spoon the mixture over the egg noodles on individual plates. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives, if you like!

Time 1h50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 (2 pound) beef chuck roast, cut into 1/2-inch thick strips
½ cup red wine
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup sliced mushrooms
¼ cup butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 ⅓ cups beef stock
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
⅓ cup sour cream
1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

Steps:

  • Place the beef into a large bowl. Stir in the red wine, salt, and black pepper. Marinate for 10 minutes, then remove the beef and pat dry with a paper towel. Reserve the remaining marinade.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the beef; cook and stir until browned, then transfer to a plate, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain any remaining grease from the skillet. Melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Stir in the onion, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Cook and stir until the onion is soft and translucent. Transfer the onion mixture to the plate with the prepared beef; set aside.
  • Melt another 2 tablespoons butter in the same skillet over medium heat, and stir in the mushrooms. Cook and stir until the mushrooms are tender, about 10 minutes. Place the cooked mushrooms in a bowl and set aside. Melt 1/4 cup of butter in the skillet. Whisk in the flour, cook and stir until the flour no longer tastes raw, about 4 minutes. Slowly whisk in the beef stock. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, then reduce heat to medium low. Pour in the reserved red wine marinade, Worcestershire sauce, prepared mustard, and red pepper flakes, then add the beef and onion mixture. Cover and simmer until the meat is tender, about 1 hour. Season with salt and black pepper.
  • Stir in the mushrooms, sour cream, and cream cheese about 5 minutes before serving.

BEEF STROGANOFF (NO SOUR CREAM)



Beef Stroganoff (No Sour Cream) image

Use a tender cut of beef such as steak for a deliciously tender and rich dish. Beef tenderloin when on sale is generally the cheapest cut out there. When buying a whole loin I save the end pieces after cutting into fillets for dishes like this or sandwiches. Yum!

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef. A good choice for beef stroganoff is a well-marbled chuck roast or top sirloin. These cuts are tender and flavorful, and they will hold up well to the braising process.
  • Use a good quality broth. The broth is a key ingredient in beef stroganoff, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
  • Don't overcook the beef. Beef stroganoff is best when the beef is cooked until it is tender, but still slightly pink in the center. Overcooking the beef will make it tough and chewy.
  • Use a cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce. A cornstarch slurry is a mixture of cornstarch and water that is used to thicken sauces. It's a simple and effective way to add body and richness to the sauce.
  • Serve beef stroganoff over egg noodles or mashed potatoes. Egg noodles and mashed potatoes are both classic accompaniments to beef stroganoff. They soak up the delicious sauce and add a hearty element to the dish.

Conclusion:

Beef stroganoff is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a hit with the family. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and comforting meal that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give beef stroganoff a try.
