Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 16 ounces white button or cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 2½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2½-3 cups low-sodium beef broth (adjust for desired consistency)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ cup sour cream, room temperature
  • Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Optional

  • Cooked egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or rice for serving

Instructions

  1. Brown the beef and vegetables: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the ground beef. Cook until halfway browned, then add the unsalted butter, chopped onion, and sliced mushrooms. Continue cooking until the beef is fully cooked and the mushrooms are browned, stirring occasionally.
  2. Add aromatics and thicken: Reduce heat to low and stir in the minced garlic, dried thyme, and dried parsley. Cook for about 1 minute while stirring constantly to release their flavors. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring well to combine and remove the raw flour taste.
  3. Simmer the sauce: Gradually pour in the low-sodium beef broth while stirring to create a smooth sauce. Add Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard, mixing thoroughly. Allow the mixture to simmer gently over low heat for 7-10 minutes until the sauce thickens to your preferred consistency.
  4. Finish with sour cream and seasoning: Stir in the room-temperature sour cream and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to warm through without boiling, which prevents curdling. Season with kosher salt and black pepper to taste.
  5. Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately over cooked egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or rice for a hearty and delicious meal.

Notes

  • Ensure the sour cream is at room temperature before adding to prevent curdling.
  • Adjust the amount of beef broth for a thicker or thinner sauce based on preference.
  • Use fresh herbs for garnish to enhance presentation and flavor.
  • This recipe can be made with ground turkey for a leaner option.
  • For gluten-free, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
