Print Recipe

A comforting and creamy beef stroganoff made effortlessly in a slow cooker, served over tender egg noodles. This recipe delivers rich flavor with minimal effort and fuss.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds ground beef (85% lean)
  • 8 ounces white mushrooms, sliced (button or cremini)
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 cups low sodium beef broth
  • 1 cup full-fat sour cream (or Greek yogurt as a lighter option)
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 12 ounces egg noodles, cooked al dente separately
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook until no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes, breaking it into crumbles. Drain excess fat and transfer beef to the slow cooker.
  2. In the same skillet, sauté mushrooms and onions for 5-7 minutes until softened and golden. Add minced garlic in the last minute. Transfer to the slow cooker.
  3. Pour beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard into the slow cooker. Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir to combine.
  4. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours, avoiding cooking past 6 hours to prevent sauce breaking.
  5. About 15 minutes before serving, cook egg noodles separately according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  6. Stir sour cream into the slow cooker gently to avoid curdling. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  7. Add cooked egg noodles to the slow cooker or plate noodles and spoon stroganoff over them. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.

Notes

Brown the beef well for caramelized flavor. Sauté mushrooms and onions to avoid watery sauce. Use full-fat sour cream and temper it before adding to prevent curdling. Cook noodles separately to keep texture firm. Avoid overcooking slow cooker time past 6 hours. Adjust salt at the end due to broth and Worcestershire sauce saltiness. For gluten-free, use gluten-free flour or cornstarch and gluten-free noodles. For dairy-free, substitute sour cream with coconut or cashew cream and use dairy-free noodles or serve over rice.
