Beef stroganoff is a dish that there are many different ways to make and they all offer their own advantages, this is my version. For this recipe I used some scrap cutoffs I had from cutting my own steaks.  I have also made this with all types of leftover steak.  They all work and all taste great with the mushroom sauce.  The sauce is rich and tangy with a nice peppery bite.  This recipe is kind of 2 things in 1. First its a way to use random cuts of fresh meat and second it’s a great way use up left over beef. This recipe is very quick and easy.

This will make enough for 2-4 people.

Use up any leftover beef scraps from previous meals or from cutting your own steaks, I used NY Strip.
Skip steps 1 and 2 if you are using leftover meat.

Ingredients

  • 1lb Steak (Cut into thin slices)

  • 12oz Baby Portabella Mushrooms (Sliced)

  • 12oz Wide Egg Noodles

  • 1 Medium Yellow Onion (Diced)

  • 2C Beef Stock

  • 1C Dry White Wine (Chardonnay)

  • 1C Sour Cream

  • 1/2C Cream

  • 3T Butter

  • 2T Worcestershire Sauce

  • 2T Cream Cheese

  • 2T Fresh Parsley (Chopped)

  • 1T Horseradish Mustard

  • 5 Sprigs Fresh Thyme (5" Pieces)

  • 2 Sprigs Fresh Rosemary (5" Pieces)

  • 2t Kosher Salt (For Steak)

  • 1t Black Pepper (For Steak)

  • 1t Italian Seasoning (For Steak)

  • Salt and Pepper

  • Corn Starch Slurry
  • 2T Corn Starch

  • 2T Cold Water

Directions

  • Cut steak into even sized 1/2″ strips. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Let rest for 10 minutes before cooking.
  • Heat large frypan over medium-high heat and when hot add 1T butter.  When butter has melted add steak to pan and cook just until meat is medium inside or an instant read thermometer reads 130. Remove steak from pan and set aside. 
  • Start water for noodles. Then add remaining 2T butter to hot pan, add diced onions, and sweat down. After onions are translucent add mushrooms, garlic, thyme, rosemary and stir to fully coat. Add in wine, reduce by 1/2 then add in beef stock.
  • When beef stock has reduced by 1/2 add in cream and sour cream, let this simmer stirring occasionally. After the sauce has started to thicken, remove sprigs of thyme and rosemary. Add cream cheese and parsley, whisk until the are fully emulsified. Turn heat to low and allow sauce to simmer.
  • Start noodles. when noodles are 2 min from done make cornstarch slurry by combining equal parts cold water and cornstarch and whisking.
  • When noodles are 2 min from done make cornstarch slurry by combining equal parts cold water and cornstarch and whisking to fully combine.
  • After noodles are fully cooked, strain then set aside.  Add in the slurry gradually until the sauce has thickened then add the steak back in. Cook for 1 min. You might not need all of the slurry so add it just until the sauce is to you liking.
  • To plate add noodles to bowl, then top with desired amount of steak and mushroom sauce, and top with more fresh parsley.

Notes

  • More meat is never a bad thing for this recipe, 1lb is just what I used.
  • If your sauce becomes too thick after the slurry has been added you can thin it out with more beef stock.
