Tender strips of beef beef sirloin sautéed with mushrooms and onions in a rich, tangy sour cream and mustard sauce.

Presentation & How It's Eaten

Served hot over buttered egg noodles, rice, or crisp straw potatoes.

Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs beef tenderloin or sirloin, cut into thin strips

• 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced

• 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 cup sour cream (at room temperature)

• 1 cup beef stock

• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard

• 2 tbsp unsalted butter

• 1 tbsp all-purpose flour

• Salt and black pepper

Step-by-Step Directions

1. Sear Beef: Season beef strips with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over high heat. Sear beef quickly in batches (1–2 mins); remove beef.

2. Sauté Vegetables: Add remaining butter to skillet. Sauté sliced mushrooms and onions over medium heat for 6–8 minutes until golden; stir in garlic.

3. Make Sauce Base: Sprinkle flour over vegetables, cook 1 minute, then whisk in beef stock and Dijon mustard. Simmer 3 minutes until thickened.

4. Combine: Lower heat to minimum. Stir in room-temperature sour cream and return seared beef with juices to pan. Warm through for 2 minutes without boiling.

5. Serve: Ladle over hot buttered egg noodles and garnish with chopped parsley.

Optional

• Pickles: Stir in 2 tbsp finely diced dill pickles for extra authentic bite.

Cooking Tips

• Do Not Boil Sour Cream: Keep heat very low after adding sour cream to prevent sauce from separating or breaking.
