Description
A creamy, hearty, and rich weeknight dinner that combines ground beef, mushrooms, and a savory sour cream sauce in a single skillet for easy cleanup and maximum flavor.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 recommended)
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 cup beef broth (low-sodium)
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 cup full-fat sour cream
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, and cook until browned (about 5 minutes).
- Add diced onion and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook until onions are translucent and mushrooms have released moisture and browned (about 3 minutes).
- Stir in minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir constantly for 1 minute to cook off the raw flour taste.
- Slowly pour in beef broth while stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Add Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Reduce heat to low and remove skillet from heat entirely. Stir in sour cream until fully incorporated. Do not let the sauce boil after adding sour cream.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately over egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or rice.
Notes
Ensure sour cream is at room temperature before adding to prevent curdling. Remove pan from heat before adding dairy. For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend or cornstarch slurry. This dish does not freeze well due to the sour cream; freeze the beef mixture separately if meal prepping.
