Prep

  1. 01

    Slice 12 ounces mushrooms.

  2. 02

    Dice 1 medium yellow onion.

  3. 03

    Mince 2 cloves garlic.

  4. 04

    Chop 2 tablespoons fresh parsley for garnish.

Method

  1. 01

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 02

    While the noodles cook, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon, and cook until browned, about 5–7 minutes. Drain excess fat if needed. Transfer beef to a plate.

  3. 03

    Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook over medium-high heat until golden, about 4–5 minutes. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and cook until softened, about 2 minutes.

  4. 04

    Return the beef to the skillet. Stir in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer for 3–4 minutes to blend flavors.

  5. 05

    Remove from heat. Stir in the sour cream until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  6. 06

    Divide the cooked noodles among bowls or plates. Top with the beef and mushroom mixture. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Spice Tips

For deeper flavor, add 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika to the mushroom mixture. A pinch of fresh thyme or a dash of hot sauce stirred into the sour cream adds warmth. If you prefer it richer, substitute half the sour cream with cream cheese or crème fraîche.
