Print Recipe

A comforting classic dish featuring ground beef and creamy noodles, perfect for weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (450g) ground beef (85% lean)
  • 8 ounces (225g) egg noodles
  • 8 ounces (225g) white or cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups (480ml) low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 cup (240ml) sour cream (full-fat preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cook the noodles. Start by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until they are al dente. Reserve about ½ cup of the pasta water before draining.
  2. Brown the beef. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned, then transfer to a plate.
  3. Sauté the veggies. In the same skillet, add the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the chopped onions and sauté for 3-4 minutes. Then add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking for an additional 5-6 minutes.
  4. Create the sauce. Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed veggies, stirring to coat. Gradually whisk in the beef broth and add Worcestershire sauce and smoked paprika. Simmer for about 5 minutes.
  5. Finish it off. Lower the heat, add the cooked ground beef back into the skillet, and stir in the sour cream until combined. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper as needed.
  6. Combine noodles and sauce. Toss the drained noodles into the skillet and fold gently until coated in the sauce. Let sit on low heat for 1-2 minutes to warm through.

Notes

For a lighter option, substitute ground beef with ground turkey. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
