Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs beef chuck roast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
  • 1 large yellow onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 8 oz cremini or white mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sour cream, full-fat
  • 12 oz egg noodles
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Pat the beef chuck pieces dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in batches for 4-5 minutes per batch until a deep golden crust forms. Transfer browned beef to the crockpot.
  3. In the same skillet, sauté diced onions until softened, about 3 minutes. Add minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking for another 4-5 minutes until mushrooms release moisture and begin to brown.
  4. Transfer the sautéed onions, garlic, and mushrooms to the crockpot over the beef.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together beef broth, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and flour until smooth. Pour this mixture over the beef and veggies in the crockpot and stir gently to combine.
  6. Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours until beef is fork-tender and sauce thickens. If sauce is too thin near the end, cook uncovered on high for 15-20 minutes to reduce.
  7. About 15 minutes before stroganoff is ready, cook egg noodles in salted boiling water according to package instructions (6-8 minutes). Drain and set aside.
  8. Stir sour cream into the crockpot just before serving. Adjust salt and pepper to taste. Stir gently to avoid curdling.
  9. Serve the creamy beef mixture over warm egg noodles and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.

Notes

Brown the beef before slow cooking to lock in flavor and texture. Add sour cream at the end to prevent curdling. If sauce is too thin, cook uncovered on high for 15-20 minutes to reduce. For gluten-free, substitute flour and noodles. For dairy-free, use coconut yogurt or cashew cream instead of sour cream.
