Instructions

Brown Meat and Onions: In a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat, sauté the onions until transparent, 2-3 minutes. Add the ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks (Image 1). Drain excess grease, but leave those yummy browned bits.
Add Sliced Mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic to the pot and cook until they begin to soften, about 3-5 minutes (Image 2).
Add Flour: Sprinkle the flour over the beef and vegetable mixture, stirring well to combine and coat everything evenly. Cook for another minute.
Add Beef Broth and flavorings: Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard, stirring to incorporate. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes (Image 3).
Add Sour Cream: Stir in the sour cream with a wooden spoon until fully incorporated, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Cook Noodles: While the meat simmers, cook egg noodles according to package instructions. Once the noodles are cooked, stir them into the pot with the meat.
Enjoy: Serve this easy ground beef stroganoff recipe hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

Add sour cream off the heat: Remove the pot from the stove before stirring in the sour cream. Adding it off the heat prevents the sauce from curdling and ensures that smooth, creamy texture you want.

Don't overcook the noodles: Keep an eye on the noodles and check for doneness towards the end of the cooking time. Overcooked noodles can become mushy when combined with the warm beef mixture.

Make Ahead: You can prepare the One-Pot Ground Beef Stroganoff ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or microwave, adding a splash of broth or water if needed to maintain consistency.
