Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs top sirloin steak sliced thin against the grain into strips
  • 12 oz egg noodles wide, cooked according to package directions
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 1 tsp kosher salt plus more to taste
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 medium yellow onion finely diced
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 16 oz cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour or cornstarch for gluten-free
  • 1.5 cups low-sodium beef broth good quality
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup full-fat sour cream room temperature
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Pat the sirloin strips dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over high heat until shimmering and nearly smoking. Add half the beef in a single layer — do not crowd the pan. Sear for 60-90 seconds per side until deeply browned. Remove to a plate and repeat with remaining beef. Set aside.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add butter and the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the same skillet. Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent.
  • Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms in a single layer. Cook undisturbed for 3 minutes to allow browning, then stir and cook for another 3-4 minutes until deeply golden and all moisture has evaporated.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom mixture and stir to coat. Cook for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.
  • Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Stir well, scraping up all the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 4-5 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  • Remove the skillet from heat completely. Stir in the room-temperature sour cream until fully incorporated and the sauce is smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  • Add the seared beef back to the pan along with any resting juices. Stir gently to coat the beef in the sauce.
  • Serve immediately over cooked egg noodles. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley.

Notes

Storage: Store sauce and noodles separately in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat sauce gently over low heat with a splash of broth; stir in a fresh spoonful of sour cream if needed to restore creaminess. Do not freeze once sour cream has been added. Lighten it up: Substitute full-fat plain Greek yogurt for sour cream. Gluten-free: Use cornstarch instead of flour and gluten-free noodles or serve over rice.
