Ingredients
Scale
2 pounds of beef stew meat or chuck roast, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 medium onion, finely chopped
3 cloves of garlic, minced
8 ounces of mushrooms, sliced
2 cups of beef broth, low sodium recommended
1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon of dried thyme
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup of sour cream
2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour or cornstarch for a gluten-free option
Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
Start by prepping all ingredients. Chop the onion, mince the garlic, and slice the mushrooms.
For enhanced flavor, consider browning the beef stew meat in a skillet over medium-high heat until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. This step is optional but adds depth to the dish.
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and set it on low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours.
About 30 minutes before serving, create a slurry by whisking the flour (or cornstarch) with a few tablespoons of cold water in a separate bowl. Stir the mixture into the slow cooker to thicken the sauce.
Finally, add the sour cream to the cooker, mixing well just before serving.
Once everything is ready, serve your beef stroganoff over egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
