Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. The salt not only seasons the noodles but also enhances their flavor. Once the water is boiling, add the egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions, typically around 7-10 minutes, or until they are al dente. Al dente means the noodles are firm to the bite, which is crucial as they will continue to cook slightly when mixed with the hot sauce later. After draining the noodles, toss them with a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking. Set them aside while you prepare the rest of the dish.

Ingredients
  

1 lb beef sirloin, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

8 oz mushrooms, sliced

1 teaspoon paprika

1 cup beef broth

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 cup sour cream

Salt and pepper to taste

8 oz egg noodles

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Cook the Noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Sear the Beef: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the thinly sliced beef and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

      Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté for about 2 minutes until softened and fragrant. Add the sliced mushrooms and continue cooking for an additional 4-5 minutes until the mushrooms are tender.

        Add Flavor: Sprinkle the paprika over the vegetables and stir well. Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, stirring to combine. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.

          Finish the Sauce: Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream until fully combined. Return the seared beef to the skillet and gently mix everything together. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow to heat through for another 2-3 minutes.

            Combine with Noodles: Add the cooked egg noodles to the beef stroganoff mixture, gently folding everything together to ensure the noodles are well coated with the creamy sauce.

              Serve: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve hot.
