Beef Stroganoff (Serves 6)
:: Ingredients
1 ½ lb beef tenderloin or sirloin, cut into small cubes & seasoned with salt/pepper
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 pound mushrooms, thinly sliced or 2 small can sliced mushrooms, drained
1 ½ cup beef broth or consomme
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
¼ cup sour cream (regular or light)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pkg (1 lb) egg noodles, cooked to package instructions
:: Directions
1. In skillet, heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter.
2. Working in small batches, cook beef over high heat and sear until brown on all sides, about 5 minutes depending on size. When done, remove beef from pan and set aside to rest.
3. In same pan on medium heat, add 2 tablespoons butter and chopped onion and saute until translucent.
4. Add (fresh) mushrooms when onions are nearly done. (If using canned mushrooms, don't add until later.) Saute mushrooms 3-4 minutes or until tender.
5. Whisk in beef broth and Dijon mustard. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
6. Whisk in sour cream and allow sauce to thicken 2-3 minutes.
7. Remove from heat, add beef in to the sauce (if using canned mushrooms, add now), stir and season with salt/pepper to taste.
8. Serve over egg noodles.
Options: If you like pickles, chopped cornichons (or small dill pickles) can be mixed in to the sauce (aprox. ¼ cup)

I make something very similar to this, with the exception of instead of using sour cream, I use plain yogurt. (plain Greek yogurt works well too!) I also add little flour (1Tbsp.) to the (cold) beef broth in order to help the mixture thicken. Saves on fat and calories, and my family LOVES it!!!
