Instructions


1.

Prepare the Beef: In a bowl, mix the beef strips with olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.

2.

Cook the Noodles: Cook the whole wheat noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

3.

Sear the Beef: In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, about 2-3 minutes per batch, until browned. Remove beef and set aside.

4.

Sauté Vegetables: Add 2 tbsp of olive oil to the skillet. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and start to brown, about 7-10 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

5.

Deglaze the Pan: If using, pour in the dry sherry or white wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let it simmer for a minute to reduce the alcohol.

6.

Make the Sauce: Pour in the beef broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 5 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

7.

Combine: Stir in the sour cream or Greek yogurt until well combined. Return the beef to the skillet and heat through, about 2-3 minutes. Be careful not to boil the sauce after adding sour cream/yogurt, as it may curdle.

8.

Serve: Serve the beef stroganoff over the cooked whole wheat noodles. Garnish with fresh parsley.

For a richer flavor, you can use a combination of beef broth and beef bouillon.

2.

If you don't have sherry or white wine, you can substitute with more beef broth and a splash of lemon juice for acidity.
