One-Pot Ground Beef Stroganoff with Noodles
A quick and easy 30-minute meal that all happens in ONE pan! Ground Beef Stroganoff is full of fresh mushrooms and noodles in a rich and creamy (no condensed soup) ground beef sauce. A healthy and hearty dish the whole family will love.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1/2 cup onion chopped fine
- 2 1/2 cups sliced button or cremini mushrooms see notes for substitute ideas
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 4 cups beef stock I use better than bouillon roasted beef base
- 1 cup water
- 1 tsp Worcestershire
- 3 1/2 cups extra wide egg noodles
- 3/4 cup light sour cream
- fresh or dried parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a large deep skillet melt butter over medium heat and add ground beef. Crumble and cook until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Do not drain the excess fat or liquid.
- Add onion and cook 2-3 minutes until softened and translucent.
- Stir in mushrooms, thyme, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Cook mushrooms until golden brown and soft about 4-5 minutes.
- Add beef stock, water and Worcestershire. Increase heat to medium high and bring to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook stirring occasionally for 9-10 minutes or until noodles are done and the sauce has thickened. There will still be some loose liquid in the pan.
- Remove from the heat and stir in sour cream. The sauce will continue to thicken as it sets. Garnish with fresh or dried parsley and serve.
Notes
Tips:
Beef Stock- Store-bought beef stock works just fine but for best flavor I use Better Than Bouillon Roasted Beef Base.
Sour Cream- If you don't have sour cream, full-fat Greek yogurt is a good substitute. Start with a 1/2 cup and add more if desired.
Mushroom Substitute- Mushrooms are a staple ingredient in Beef Stroganoff but if you have a picky eater or don't like them yourself, cut the mushrooms in bigger chunks so you still get the depth of flavor but they can easily be picked out. You could also try swapping out the mushrooms for a can of drained green beans.
