Ingredients

Scale

Beef Stroganoff Ingredients

  • 1 lb beef stew meat
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste

To Serve

  • Egg noodles, cooked according to package instructions

Instructions

  1. Sauté Beef and Onion: In a skillet over medium-high heat, sauté the beef stew meat and chopped onion until the beef is sealed and browned on all sides. This step helps develop flavor and locks in the meat’s juices.
  2. Combine Ingredients in Crockpot: Transfer the sautéed beef and onion to the crockpot. Add beef broth, sliced mushrooms, Worcestershire sauce, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Cook Slow and Low: Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 6 hours. This slow cooking process tenderizes the beef and allows flavors to meld beautifully.
  4. Finish with Sour Cream: About 10 minutes before serving, stir in the sour cream to give the stroganoff its signature creamy texture and tangy flavor. Heat gently until warmed through but do not boil after adding sour cream to prevent curdling.
  5. Serve: Spoon the beef stroganoff over freshly cooked egg noodles and serve hot for a satisfying meal.

Notes

  • Sautéing the beef before slow cooking adds more depth of flavor.
  • Use full-fat sour cream for the creamiest texture.
  • This dish can be paired with steamed green vegetables or a fresh salad for a balanced meal.
  • Leftovers reheat well in a skillet over low heat; add a splash of broth if it thickens too much.
