Ingredients

• 1 pound beef sirloin (cut into 1/2-inch strips)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 cup cremini mushrooms (sliced)
• 0.5 cup yellow onion (finely chopped)
• 2 clove garlic (minced)
• 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 cup beef broth (low-sodium)
• 0.5 cup dry red wine
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 0.25 cup sour cream (full-fat)
• 1 package konjac noodles (rinsed and prepared according to package)
• 1 tablespoon fresh chives (chopped, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Pat beef strips dry with paper towels. Season lightly with kosher salt and black pepper.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear beef in batches for 2-3 minutes per side until browned. Remove beef from skillet and set aside.
3. Add butter to the skillet. Once melted, add sliced cremini mushrooms and finely chopped yellow onion. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until mushrooms are browned and onions are softened.
4. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Deglaze the pan with low-sodium beef broth and dry red wine (if using), scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
5. Reduce heat to low. Stir in Dijon mustard. Return beef to the pan. Cover and simmer for 20-30 minutes, or until beef is tender. If sauce is too thin, simmer uncovered for an additional 5-10 minutes.
6. Remove skillet from heat. Stir in full-fat sour cream until fully incorporated and sauce is creamy. Do not boil after adding sour cream.
7. Prepare konjac noodles according to package directions. Serve Hearty Beef Stroganoff over the prepared konjac noodles, garnished with fresh chives if desired.

Notes

Ensure sour cream is at room temperature before adding to prevent curdling. For extra depth, use beef stew meat and braise for a longer period (1-2 hours) until fall-apart tender.
