Tips for the Beef Stroganoff Recipe
- We make this beef Stroganoff with ground beef but you can definitely use sirloin steak. Cook it first, then slice it before adding back to the sauce and pasta.
- You can sub in Greek yogurt for the heavy whipping cream if you prefer.
- If you don’t have Shiitake mushrooms, baby Bella or cremini mushrooms will work too.
- Beef Stroganoff can also be prepared in an instant pot! See this Instant-Pot beef Stroganoff recipe for more details.

Directions
1. To prepare the one-pot beef Stroganoff: Melt unsalted butter in a large skillet or chef pan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and onion, and cook, stirring occasionally until mushrooms are browned, and onion translucent, about 3-5 minutes. Season the mushrooms and onion with salt and pepper, to taste.
2. Add ground beef to the mushrooms and onions and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon. Stir in garlic and thyme and cook for about 1 minute.
3. Sprinkle flour into the ground beef mixture and cook, stirring regularly until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Avoid making clumps when you sprinkle the flour into the beef, mushrooms, and onions.
4. Stir in red wine into the mixture to deglaze. It’s time to scrape these delicious browned bits from the bottom of your skillet!
5. Stir in the beef stock, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and pasta. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat and simmer until pasta is cooked through. Count about 10 minutes.
6. Once pasta is done. Stir in the heavy cream until heated through, about 1-2 minutes. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, if needed.
7. Serve the one-pot beef Stroganoff immediately, garnished with parsley and red chili pepper flakes, if you like. Enjoy! ❤️
