22. Beef Stroganoff...it's what's for dinner!

Wed Jul 11, 2012, 05:09 PM

Jul 2012

(can be done with chicken too for the tropical forrest devotees).

Beef Stroganoff

1 large round steak cut up into bite sized strips
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1 onion, thinly sliced
2-3 cloves of garlic, minced
1 stick of butter
2 cans of beef bullion (double strength)
1 cup sour cream

Melt butter in large skillet. Coat steak strips in flour, salt & pepper mixture. Brown steak in skillet (stir well after browning to loosen up the drippings). Add mushrooms, garlic & onion and simmer about 5 minutes until, stirring well. Stir in cans of beef broth. Cover and simmer on low for about an hour, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Just before serving, stir in sour cream making sure it’s well heated. Serve over buttered noodles.

A good side with this is french cut green beans with slivered almonds. Get some good crusty french bread and a nice cabernet.
