Ingredients

  • 1 lb sirloin or ribeye steak, thinly sliced across the grain
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter, divided
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cups mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • ¾ cup sour cream, room temperature
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 oz wide egg noodles, cooked
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear beef slices in batches, about 1–2 minutes per side, until browned. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pan, reduce heat to medium. Add the remaining butter and diced onions. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until soft.
  3. Add mushrooms and cook 5–6 minutes until browned and their liquid has evaporated. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  4. Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir well. Slowly add beef broth while stirring to create a smooth sauce.
  5. Add Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 4–5 minutes to thicken.
  6. Reduce heat to low. Stir in sour cream until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  7. Return the seared beef and juices to the pan. Cook for 2–3 minutes, just until beef is warmed through.
  8. Serve over cooked egg noodles and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
