One-Pot Beef Mushroom Noodles (Print)

Tender beef, mushrooms, and noodles in a creamy sauce make this one-pot meal quick, hearty, and satisfying.

# Components:

→ Beef and Sauce

01 - 1 1/2 pounds sirloin or flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
02 - 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
03 - 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
04 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
05 - 12 ounces cremini or button mushrooms, sliced
06 - 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
07 - 2 cups beef broth
08 - 1 cup dry white wine or extra beef broth
09 - 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
10 - 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
11 - Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

→ Noodles and Garnish

12 - 8 ounces wide egg noodles
13 - 1/2 cup sour cream, at room temperature
14 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

# Directions:

01 - Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large Dutch oven or deep skillet over medium-high heat. Season beef slices with salt and black pepper. Working in batches, sear the beef until browned on both sides but still rare in the center, about 1 minute per side. Transfer beef to a plate.
02 - Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and add sliced onion. Cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and sliced mushrooms; sauté until mushrooms release their juices and are golden brown, about 5 minutes.
03 - Sprinkle flour over the sauteed vegetables and stir to coat evenly. Cook for 1 minute to eliminate raw flour taste. Gradually add beef broth and white wine (or extra broth), whisking constantly and scraping up any browned bits. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
04 - Add the wide egg noodles to the simmering sauce, stirring to submerge them. Return the seared beef with its juices to the pot. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender and the sauce has thickened, 8 to 10 minutes.
05 - Remove the pot from the heat. Off the heat, gently swirl in sour cream until fully combined and the sauce is smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and freshly ground black pepper as needed.
06 - Divide into individual bowls and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley just before serving.
