Ground Beef Stroganoff

 

Coming at ya with another quick and easy dinner option!  You probably have most, if not all, of the ingredients already in your pantry.

16oz bag of egg noodles
1 pound ground beef
1 stick butter
1/2 cup flour
2 cups beef broth
2 1/2 cups milk
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. onion powder
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup sour cream

Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook egg noodles according to the package directions.

While the noodles are cooking, heat a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat.  Add the ground beef and cook until no longer pink.

Once the meat is cooked, add the stick of butter and allow it to melt.

Add the flour and whisk continuously for 1 minute.

Slowly pour in the beef broth, whisking constantly.  Continue whisking until the sauce begins to thicken.

Slowly whisk in the milk and continue to cook until thick.  The sauce should be smooth and creamy.

Add the sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.  Whisk well dissolving all lumps.

Reduce the heat to low.  Add in the cooked egg noodles and stir until the noodles are thoroughly incorporated.  

Simmer until the sauce is the consistency you like.  It should be nice, thick, and creamy.
