Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 1 pound cremini mushrooms thinly sliced
- 1 pound ground beef chuck 80/20
- 1 small sweet onion small diced
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups beef stock
- ¾ cup heavy cream
- 1 ½ tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- ¾ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ⅔ cup sour cream
- Cooked egg noodles for serving
- Fresh chopped parsley for garnish optional
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the butter. Once melted, add the mushrooms, occasionally stirring, and cook for about 5 minutes until slightly softened with a light sear. Place them on a plate and set aside.
- Add the ground beef and break it up into crumbles, occasionally stirring until cooked through with no pink left, 8-10 minutes.
- Then add the onions and stir them into the beef. Cook until softened and translucent, 8-10 minutes, occasionally stirring.
- Add in the garlic and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add in the flour and stir until everything is coated and cook for 1 minute to get the flour taste out.
- Slowly stream in the beef stock while constantly stirring. Add the heavy cream, worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper, and stir to combine.
- Add the mushrooms back to the skillet and stir them in. Bring to a simmer and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Take off the heat and stir in the sour cream until combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately over egg noodles with fresh parsley if using.
Notes
- You can use half and half in place of the heavy cream if that's all you have.
- Cremini mushrooms are mushrooms that we prefer and often have on hand, feel free to use a different kind if you prefer.
- You can use ground beef, ground turkey, ground pork and even ground sausage for this recipe. Or a combo of any of them!
- If you want to use lean ground beef, you'll need to add butter or oil, see my tips on how to do that above.
- We enjoy this dish over a bed of egg noodles, but feel free to swap them out for other pasta or starches.
- You can freeze leftovers, see my suggestions above.
