Ingredients (serves 4):

- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Cooking Tips:
- Use a good quality beef sirloin for the best results.
- Make sure to slice the beef into thin strips to ensure even cooking.
- Use fresh mushrooms for the best flavor.
- Don't overcook the mushrooms, as they can become mushy and lose their texture.
Instructions:
1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef strips and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, add the butter and melt over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.
4. Slowly pour in the beef broth, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
5. Stir in the sour cream and season with salt and pepper to taste. Add the beef back to the skillet and cook until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
6. Serve the Beef and Mushroom Stroganoff hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
