A comforting slow-cooked beef stroganoff with creamy mushrooms and tender egg noodles, perfect for cozy dinners and easy weeknight meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds beef chuck roast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 cups beef broth (low-sodium preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour (can substitute cornstarch for gluten-free)
  • 1 cup full-fat sour cream
  • 12 ounces egg noodles
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cut beef chuck roast into bite-sized pieces. Slice cremini mushrooms and finely chop onion. Mince garlic cloves. (Prep time about 10 minutes)
  2. In a bowl, whisk together beef broth, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and all-purpose flour to create the sauce base.
  3. Place beef, mushrooms, onion, and garlic into the crockpot. Pour the broth mixture over the top and stir gently to combine.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours until beef is fork-tender and sauce is thickened.
  5. About 20 minutes before stroganoff is done, cook egg noodles in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  6. Turn off the crockpot and stir in sour cream gently until creamy and smooth. Avoid boiling after adding sour cream to prevent curdling.
  7. Serve the beef stroganoff over warm egg noodles and garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

For thicker sauce, add a cornstarch slurry (1 tsp cornstarch + 1 tbsp cold water) and cook on high for 15-20 minutes. Add sour cream off heat to avoid curdling. Brown beef before slow cooking for extra depth if desired. Cook noodles separately to prevent mushiness. Season gradually with salt and pepper.
