Ingredients

Scale
  • pounds sirloin steak (or ribeye), cut into ½-inch thick strips or 1-inch cubes
  • ½ teaspoon seasoned salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour (divided)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced (white or cremini)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 14.5 ounces beef broth
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • Egg noodles, pasta, or mashed potatoes for serving

Instructions

  1. Pat the steak dry using a paper towel and cut it into ½-inch thick strips or 1-inch cubes for even cooking.
  2. Season the beef pieces with seasoned salt and black pepper. Toss them with 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour and shake off any excess flour for a light coating.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in small batches, cooking for about 1 minute on each side until lightly browned. Remove and set aside on a plate.
  4. Reduce the heat to medium. Add butter and diced onion to the pan, cooking about 4-5 minutes until the onion softens. Add sliced mushrooms and minced garlic, and cook another 4 minutes until softened.
  5. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour over the mushroom mixture and cook for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.
  6. Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and dried thyme. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer uncovered for 5 minutes to thicken.
  7. Add the browned beef along with any juices that collected on the plate back into the skillet. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the beef is heated through and coated with the sauce.
  8. Remove the pan from heat and stir in the sour cream until fully blended. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
  9. Spoon the beef stroganoff over cooked egg noodles, pasta, or mashed potatoes. Optionally, garnish with chopped parsley for color and freshness.
