Ingredients needed for this Rich and Creamy Beef Stroganoff

Here is the basic list of ingredients needed to make this simple recipe!

• Beef– traditional beef stroganoff calls for seared steak strips however, I tend to go a bit simpler and use ground beef that has been fully cooked and drained. Feel free to use whichever you prefer
• Onion– diced
• Garlic– fresh minced garlic is best, however, you can use garlic flakes or powder if needed
• Worcestershire Sauce– this adds such tasty flavor! Don’t skip this ingredient as it makes it incredible
• Mushroom– this is optional, any type works or you can do a combination of types
• Beef Broth– use low sodium to control the salt levels in this recipe
• Cream of Mushroom– if you don’t want to use canned cream of mushroom, you can also make a homemade version or increase sour cream to offset
• Sour Cream– feel free to use low fat, this adds such a creaminess to the stroganoff and really combines the ingredients nicely, You can also use plain Greek yogurt in place of the sour cream
• Salt/ Black Pepper– to taste
• Egg Noodles– I love these noodles because they cook quickly, aren’t heavy, and don’t absorb a lot of the sauce which can sometimes cause the pasta to be dry in other types
• Butter– this coats the noodles once they are cooked and not yet combined with the sauce. If you prefer, you can also add some olive oil in place of the butter

What is the best beef for stroganoff?

As I mentioned above, classic beef stroganoff calls for tender strips of steak instead of the ground beef used in this recipe. I tend to use ground beef because its more affordable and I almost always have it on hand. If you prefer using the steak strips, I recommend using one of the cuts listed below.

• Sirloin Steak
• Flank Steak
• Beef Chuck Roast
• Boneless Ribeye Steak
• Filet Mignon Tips
• Beef Tenderloin
• Beef Stew Meat

Tips and Recipe Variations

• If you choose not to use ground beef and use steak, be sure to cut your steak AGAINST THE GRAIN to ensure your beef pieces are tender and not chewy.
• Feel free to omit the mushrooms if you aren’t a fan.
• A splash of white wine into the cream sauce makes a tasty addition.
• If you want to cut out the pasta, you can cook rice or mashed potatoes and simply pour the beef stroganoff on top in the casserole pan. Cook in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until heated through.
