I don’t mind putting in a little extra work in the kitchen, but with our seemingly endless list of home projects, I’ve been going for quick and easy recipes lately. But not only do I want quick and easy, I also want great tasting food too!

Flipping through some old magazines, I spotted a recipe for Ground Beef Stroganoff in an old edition of Cook’s Country Magazine. It caught my attention since it uses ground beef instead of a typical beef tenderloin. And I love mushrooms so I couldn’t wait to give this one a try. Beef + Mushrooms = PERFECTION!

Did I tell you I LOVE mushrooms? They’re kinda my jam. So it should come as no surprise I had to double the called for amount in the original recipe, because I can’t get enough of those little bites of umami goodness!

2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 pound organic ground beef

Instructions

STROGANOFF

In a Dutch oven, pour 1 tablespoon oil and heat on medium-high until shimmering. Add mushrooms and cook for 7 minutes, until their liquid has evaporated and mushrooms turn brown. Transfer mushrooms to a bowl and set aside.
Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the Dutch oven and continue to heat on medium-high heat. Once the oil starts to shimmer, add the onions and garlic and cook stirring occasionally until the onions began to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the ground beef, salt and pepper, and continue to cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon until cooked, about 5 minutes.
Add flour and stir until combined. Cook for 1 minute, and then stir in chicken broth and wine. Bring to a simmer, scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pot. Cook until the mixture begins to thicken, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and stir in the noodles and continue to cook uncovered for about 8 to 10 minutes or until the noodles are tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and stir in sour cream and mushrooms until combined.

GARNISH

Garnish with sour cream and chives. Enjoy!
