Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds beef chuck roast or stew meat, cut into thin strips
  • 8 ounces cremini or white button mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (or cornstarch/almond flour for gluten-free)
  • 1 cup full-fat sour cream, room temperature
  • 12 ounces wide egg noodles
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (optional, for finishing noodles)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Slice 2 pounds of beef chuck roast into thin strips about 1/4-inch thick. Toss the beef in a bowl with 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour until lightly coated.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, add a splash of oil or butter and cook 8 ounces sliced mushrooms with 1 finely chopped yellow onion until softened and golden, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in 3 minced garlic cloves in the last minute.
  3. Transfer the sautéed mushrooms, onions, and garlic to the slow cooker. Add the floured beef strips, 2 cups beef broth, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours, or until the beef is tender and the sauce has thickened. Alternatively, cook on high for 3-4 hours.
  5. About 15 minutes before serving, stir in 1 cup room temperature sour cream until smooth. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  6. Cook 12 ounces egg noodles in salted boiling water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and toss with 2 tablespoons butter.
  7. Serve the creamy beef stroganoff over the buttered egg noodles. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

Notes

Add sour cream at the end of cooking to prevent curdling. Sauté mushrooms and onions before adding to crockpot for richer flavor. If sauce is too thin, thicken with cornstarch slurry and cook on high for 10 minutes. Use gluten-free flour and noodles for gluten-free version. Can substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream for lighter option.
