Beef and noodles is a hearty, comforting dish made with tender beef, savory mushrooms and onions, and a rich, flavorful gravy served over egg noodles. This easy one-skillet dinner is perfect for busy weeknights or cozy family meals.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • lbs beef steak, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 12 oz egg noodles
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  2. Add beef and brown on all sides, about 5–7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same pan, sauté onions and mushrooms for 5 minutes until soft and lightly browned.
  4. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
  5. Sprinkle flour over mixture, stir to coat, and cook for 1–2 minutes.
  6. Gradually add beef broth, scraping up browned bits from the pan.
  7. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, thyme, and return beef to the skillet.
  8. Simmer covered for 25–30 minutes, or until beef is tender and sauce thickens.
  9. Meanwhile, cook egg noodles according to package directions. Drain.
  10. Serve beef and gravy over noodles. Garnish with parsley if desired.

Notes

  • Use stew meat or chuck roast for deeper flavor.
  • Add frozen peas or green beans for extra veggies.
  • Stir in sour cream at the end for a creamy variation.
  • Serve over mashed potatoes or rice if noodles aren’t available.
  • Add a splash of red wine with the broth for added depth.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze separately for 2 months.
