Really good – thanks to Nichole at thesaltymarshmallow.com for the recipe start! There are notes below on changes I’ve made to make it my own. And what Steve wanted. 🙂

Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Slice the beef across the grain into thin strips. Salt and pepper the beef to taste.
  2. Melt half of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Brown the hamburger or sear the beef strips until browned on all sides. Remove from pan to a plate and set aside.
  4. Melt the remaining half of butter in the same skillet.
  5. Cooking the veggies: start with the onion, give them a couple of minutes to start turning a bit translucent, then add the garlic, give it all a stir or two, then add the mushrooms. The garlic shouldn’t really take much longer than the mushrooms. Cook until it’s all tender and smells amazing!
  6. Sprinkle the flour over the cooked vegetables in the skillet and stir for one minute.
  7. Turn the heat to low and whisk in the beef broth slowly.
  8. Allow the broth mixture to come to a simmer and thicken.
  9. Once the mixture has thickened, stir in the Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, paprika, and sour cream.
  10. Stir in the beef and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes.
  11. Serve over hot cooked egg noodles.
Recipe Notes

Steve wants more sour cream flavor, so we’re going to add more sour cream, and I’m increasing the bits for the sauce – I think it needs more sauce!  I also think I was perhaps a bit anxious about getting dinner done – or maybe just hungry – so I didn’t cook down the sauce enough, so we’ll be working on that too.  Sorry, I’m horrible with timing stuff, and really, really good with just dumping ingredients in, but I’ll try to document this one a bit better.

Hope you enjoy!
