Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb beef tenderloin or sirloin, sliced into thin strips
  • 8 oz fresh mushrooms (cremini or button), sliced
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 cup sour cream (full-fat recommended)
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 1. Sauté beef: In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Add half the beef strips; sear until browned on all sides (about 3 minutes). Remove and set aside. Repeat with remaining beef.
  2. 2. Cook vegetables: In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of butter. Sauté onions until translucent (5 minutes), then add mushrooms and cook until golden brown.
  3. 3. Make the sauce: Sprinkle flour over the mushroom mixture; stir to coat. Gradually add beef broth while stirring to avoid lumps. Mix in Worcestershire sauce and bring to a gentle simmer.
  4. 4. Combine: Return cooked beef to the skillet; simmer for about 5 minutes until heated through. Stir in sour cream until fully combined.
  5. 5. Season and serve: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve over egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes.
