Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 1/2 medium onion, diced
- 1 lb mushrooms, sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 cup whipping cream
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp salt, adjust to taste
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper, adjust to taste
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat and Sauté Preheat a heavy, deep pan over medium-high heat with olive oil. Add the ground beef, stirring continuously to break it into small, even pieces. Once partially cooked, incorporate the diced onions and minced garlic. Continue sautéing until the onions are translucent and golden brown.
- Step 2: Add Mushrooms Introduce the sliced mushrooms into the pan. Sauté the mixture for about 5 minutes, allowing the mushrooms to soften and their juices to evaporate.
- Step 3: Incorporate Flour Sprinkle in the flour, stirring it into the mixture thoroughly to prevent any lumps from forming.
- Step 4: Mix Liquids and Season Gradually pour in the beef broth followed by the whipping cream, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Stir the mixture well to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Step 5: Simmer Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat and allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes for the flavors to meld together.
- Step 6: Add Sour Cream Remove the pan from the heat and gently fold in the sour cream, ensuring it’s well-incorporated into the sauce. Do a final taste test and adjust the seasoning as necessary.
