How to Make Barb's Beef Stroganoff

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced. Add 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms.
  2. Sauté until the onion is softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Remove the mushroom mixture from the skillet and set aside.
  4. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound of beef tenderloin, cut into 1-inch cubes. Sprinkle with ¾ teaspoon of salt and ½ teaspoon of black pepper.
  5. Brown the beef on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef with a slotted spoon and set aside in a 2-quart casserole dish.
  6. In the Dutch oven, whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour until smooth. Gradually whisk in 1 ½ cups of beef broth and 1 cup of sour cream until the sauce thickens.
  7. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
  8. Stir in the reserved mushroom mixture, browned beef, 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce, and 1 teaspoon of Kitchen Bouquet browning sauce. Pour the mixture into the casserole dish.
  9. Bake uncovered in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 30-45 minutes, or until heated through. If baking after refrigerating, add 15-20 minutes to the baking time.
  10. Serve hot over your favorite egg noodles or wide pasta.
