Thick Creamy Beef Stroganoff Recipes

BEEF STROGANOFF

Steps:

• In a large saute pan, heat the oil then add the beef in 2 batches and brown on both sides. Don't overcook the beef or it will get tough--I leave a little pink in the center of the strips. Remove to a plate and set aside.
• Add the onion to the pan and cook until they just begin to soften about 4-5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until they're soft about 5-7 minutes. Sprinkle flour evenly over veggies. Mix until veggies are evenly coated.
• Add HALF the can of beef broth and the tomato paste and cook, stirring constantly until mixture thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
• Add beef and any accumulated juices back to the pan, then add sherry, salt, pepper, tarragon, and thyme. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add sour cream and stir until sour cream is completely incorporated and sauce is smooth. Sprinkle with parsley and serve over warm cooked buttered egg noodles. Add more beef broth, if needed, to thin the sauce.

RICH AND CREAMY BEEF STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Place the beef into a large bowl. Stir in the red wine, salt, and black pepper. Marinate for 10 minutes, then remove the beef and pat dry with a paper towel. Reserve the remaining marinade.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the beef; cook and stir until browned, then transfer to a plate, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain any remaining grease from the skillet. Melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Stir in the onion, garlic, and a pinch of salt. Cook and stir until the onion is soft and translucent. Transfer the onion mixture to the plate with the prepared beef; set aside.
• Melt another 2 tablespoons butter in the same skillet over medium heat, and stir in the mushrooms. Cook and stir until the mushrooms are tender, about 10 minutes. Place the cooked mushrooms in a bowl and set aside. Melt 1/4 cup of butter in the skillet. Whisk in the flour, cook and stir until the flour no longer tastes raw, about 4 minutes. Slowly whisk in the beef stock. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, then reduce heat to medium low. Pour in the reserved red wine marinade, Worcestershire sauce, prepared mustard, and red pepper flakes, then add the beef and onion mixture. Cover and simmer until the meat is tender, about 1 hour. Season with salt and black pepper.
• Stir in the mushrooms, sour cream, and cream cheese about 5 minutes before serving.

Add 1/4 cup cognac to deglaze, stirring with a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits from bottom of pan. Add cream, and return to heat. Cook until reduced slightly, about 5 minutes. Stir in mustard. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Heat 4 tablespoons butter in the same pan over high heat. Working in batches, sear the meat for 1 minute, and add to mushrooms. Once all the meat is seared, deglaze saute pan with remaining 1/4 cup cognac, and return meat, mushrooms, and reduced-cream mixture to saute pan. Cook until just heated through, about 5 minutes. Add creme fraiche.
