In a large skillet or frying pan, add olive oil and bring to medium heat. Once the olive oil is shimmering, add diced onion and cook until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
1 tablespoon olive oil, ½ small white onion, 8 oz mushrooms
Add ground beef and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Break apart the ground beef into chunks while the beef cooks. Drain off excess fat in the pan.
1 lb ground beef
Cook noodles per package instructions while you are browning the ground beef. Drain and rinse, toss with olive oil or butter if desired.
4 cups egg noodles
Add the flour and the seasoning (garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper) starting with about a ½ teaspoon each and add more seasoning (to taste) once the sauce comes together, combining with the browned ground beef.
¼ cup all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon paprika, ¼ teaspoon salt
Stir in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until sauce is thickened.
Remove from heat and stir in the sour cream. Serve over cooked noodles (or rice) and garnish with parsley.
½ cup sour cream, 2 tablespoon parsley
Notes
If you have picky eaters that won't like the onion pieces in the sauce, omit the diced onion and use 1-1 ½ teaspoon onion powder instead.
If you are using the optional mushrooms, they can be cooked first in the olive oil (saute for about 5 minutes) and removed to a plate to either include in the sauce last minute or serve over the pasta and Ground Beef Stroganoff when dished up.
Not a fan of Worcestershire sauce? Add a small amount and adjust to taste or omit entirely.
