  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons butter (28g)
  • 1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms (100g)
  • ⅓ cup chopped onion (about 50g)
  • 1 pound lean ground beef (450g)
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (15g)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (5g)
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt (5g)
  • ½ teaspoon ground paprika (2g)
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper (1g)
  • 1 can (10.75 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • ¾ cup sour cream (180g), or more to taste
  • 1 tablespoon liquid smoke, or to taste (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (15ml)

Instructions

  • Sauté the Mushrooms and Onions
    Begin by melting the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once melted, add the sliced mushrooms and chopped onions to the skillet. Cook them for 5-7 minutes, or until both the mushrooms and onions are tender. This adds depth to the flavor of the stroganoff, so don’t rush this step!
  • Cook the Ground Beef
    Once the mushrooms and onions are softened, add the ground beef to the skillet. Break it apart using your spatula, and cook until browned, which should take about 5-6 minutes. Once fully cooked, drain any excess fat from the skillet to keep the dish from becoming greasy.
  • Add the Seasonings and Flour
    After draining the fat, stir in the flour, garlic powder, seasoning salt, paprika, and black pepper. Let this cook for 1-2 minutes to remove any raw flour taste. This step ensures the flavors coat the beef thoroughly and will help thicken the sauce later.
  • Make the Creamy Sauce
    Stir in the condensed cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, liquid smoke (if using), and Worcestershire sauce. Stir everything until it is well combined. Allow the mixture to simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and heats through. The longer it simmers, the more the flavors meld together.
  • Serve
    Once the sauce has thickened, serve your beef stroganoff over cooked egg noodles or rice. Garnish with fresh parsley or a sprinkle of paprika for a pop of color.

Notes

Serving Suggestions and Presentation Tips

Serve this Beef Stroganoff With Ground Beef over freshly cooked egg noodles for the most authentic experience, or opt for rice, mashed potatoes, or even zucchini noodles for a lower-carb option. Add a garnish of fresh parsley or a dash of paprika on top for extra color and flavor. Pair the dish with a side of steamed green beans, a light salad, or roasted vegetables to balance out the richness of the stroganoff.
