Here are the simple steps to making this amazing stroganoff sauce recipe

Step 1: Start by Sauteing the Mushrooms, Onions and Sirloin Beef

In a large skillet, you'll start by sauteing the mushrooms and onions. These will take approximately 5-7 minutes over medium-high heat to cook through. Onions will be translucent and the mushrooms will cook down. Transfer these to a separate bowl and cover to keep warm.

In the same skillet, saute the sirloin beef. This should just take around 5 minutes over medium-high heat. Once browned, transfer to the bowl with the mushrooms and onions. Cover to keep warm.

At this point, it's a good time to bring water to a boil to cook the egg noodles.

Step 2: Make the Stroganoff Sauce – PS, this is the BEST Stroganoff Sauce recipe!

In the same large skillet that you sauteed the beef, mushrooms and onions, you'll make a roux. A roux is your thickening agent that is made with melted butter and flour.

Melt the butter, and then add the flour. Over medium heat, whisk together until bubbly – this is to make sure the flour is cooked.

Next, add the beef broth to the roux. Whisk this into the roux, and over medium-high heat, bring to a low simmer. You'll then add the cooking sherry and Worcestershire sauce. Continue whisking and bring back to a simmer.

FAQ: Will this stroganoff sauce recipe taste boozy due to the sherry?

No. Once you bring the sauce back to a simmer, the alcohol in the sherry will cook off. It leaves an amazing flavor and richness to the sauce that brings this stroganoff sauce recipe from good to incredible! If you prefer to not use sherry you can omit it, however, I do not recommend it.

Step 3: Add the Sour Cream and Spices to the Sauce, Add in the Beef, Mushrooms and Onions

The last step to creating this delicious stroganoff sauce recipe is to whisk in the sour cream, garlic salt and pepper. Whisk together well to bring the sauce to a smooth, creamy consistency. Then, add back the cooked beef, mushrooms and onions. Stir together and heat the sauce over medium heat for approximately 5 minutes.

You'll have a wonderfully creamy, rich sauce that tastes amazing! Serve this stroganoff sauce recipe over hot egg noodles, or you can pour in the egg noodles directly into the skillet and stir together for some creamy, beefy noodle deliciousness!

Step 4: Serve over egg noodles OR stir in the noodles to the stroganoff sauce and serve as one
