Recipe Ingredients:
- 2 pounds beef chuck roast
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 4 ounces butter
- 4 green onions, sliced (white parts only)
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed beef broth
- 1 teaspoon prepared mustard
- 1 (6 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained
- ⅓ cup sour cream
- ⅓ cup white wine
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
How To Make Beef Stroganoff?
- Prepare the beef: Remove any fat and gristle from the chuck roast, then cut it into strips approximately 1.25 cm / ½-inch thick by 5 cm / 2-inches long. Season with salt and pepper.
- Brown the beef: Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the beef strips and brown quickly, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
- Cook the onions: Push the beef to one side of the skillet. Add the green onions to the empty side and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.
- Make the sauce base: Stir the flour into the juices on the empty side of the skillet until smooth. Slowly pour in the beef broth while stirring constantly, then bring the mixture to a boil.
- Simmer the beef: Reduce the heat and stir in the prepared mustard. Cover the skillet and simmer for 1 hour, or until the beef becomes tender.
- Add final ingredients: Five minutes before serving, stir in the sliced mushrooms, sour cream, and white wine. Heat through without boiling, then adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Serve: Spoon the beef stroganoff over hot cooked noodles and enjoy immediately.
Recipe Tips:
- Choose the right beef: Use a chuck roast or similar cut with good marbling for tender and flavorful stroganoff. Slice it thinly against the grain to ensure it cooks evenly.
- Don’t skip browning the beef: Browning the beef quickly on high heat adds a deep, rich flavor to the dish. Avoid overcrowding the pan to get a good sear.
- Thicken the sauce properly: Stir the flour into the pan juices well to remove lumps before adding the broth. This step ensures a smooth, creamy sauce.
- Add sour cream at the end: Stir in sour cream just before serving and avoid boiling it, as high heat can cause it to curdle.
- Taste and adjust seasoning: Before serving, check the flavor of the sauce and adjust with extra salt, pepper, or mustard for balance.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: First, let the leftover Beef Stroganoff cool to room temperature. Transfer it to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Freeze: Allow the Beef Stroganoff to cool completely before transferring it to a freezer-safe container. Freeze for up to 3 months. To thaw, place it in the refrigerator overnight.
- Reheat: Place the Beef Stroganoff in a skillet over low heat. Add a splash of water or broth to loosen the sauce, and stir gently until heated through.
