Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds beef chuck roast, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter, for searing
  • 1 yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 8 ounces cremini or white mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cups beef broth (low sodium preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (or arrowroot/cornstarch for gluten-free)
  • 1 cup sour cream (full-fat recommended; Greek yogurt as alternative)
  • 12 ounces wide egg noodles
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Pat beef chuck roast cubes dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear beef cubes in batches until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Transfer browned beef to the slow cooker.
  3. In the same skillet, sauté chopped onion and sliced mushrooms over medium heat until softened and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic in the last minute. Transfer vegetables to the slow cooker.
  4. Pour beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard into the slow cooker. Sprinkle flour evenly over the mixture and stir gently to combine.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours until beef is fork-tender and sauce is thickened.
  6. About 15 minutes before serving, cook egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  7. Turn slow cooker to warm. Stir in sour cream gently, avoiding boiling to prevent curdling. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Serve stroganoff sauce over egg noodles or toss noodles with sauce. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

Searing the beef before slow cooking locks in juices and adds depth of flavor. Add sour cream at the end to prevent curdling. Use gluten-free flour and pasta for gluten-free version. For dairy-free, substitute sour cream with coconut cream or dairy-free alternatives. Avoid overcooking noodles; they should be al dente. Leftovers keep well refrigerated for 3 days or frozen for up to 2 months. Reheat gently with added broth or water to loosen sauce.
