An easy version of stroganoff made with ground beef in one-pan!

ingredients

1 tablespoon butter
8 ounces mushrooms, quartered or sliced
1 pound ground beef
1 onion, diced (~1 cup)
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried dill (optional)
2 teaspoons paprika*
4 cups beef broth
8 ounces egg noodles, uncooked (gluten-free for gluten-free)
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons fish sauce (or soy sauce or tamari)
1/3 cup sour cream
salt and pepper to taste

directions

Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-high heat, add the mushrooms and cook, about 10 minutes, before setting aside.
Add the beef on onion to the pan and cook, breaking the meat apart as it cooks, until cooked through, about 10-15 minutes.
Add the garlic, thyme, dill and paprika, mix in and cook until fragrant, about a minute.
Add the mushrooms, broth, noodles, mustard, worcestershire sauce, and fish sauce, bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium, cover and cook until the noodles are tender, about 5-10 minutes.
Mix in the sour cream and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Option: Use thinly sliced strips of steak instead of ground beef.
Option: Use hot smoked paprika!
Option: Sprinkle 2 tablespoons flour (or rice flour for gluten-free) into the pan along with the garlic, thyme, dill and paprika to help thicken the sauce.
Option: Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
