This easy Ground Beef Stroganoff is a creamy, comforting one-skillet meal made in just 30 minutes. With tender egg noodles, savory beef, and a rich, homemade sauce (no canned soup!), it’s a budget-friendly dinner that’s family-approved and full of classic flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 6 oz egg noodles
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth (or chicken broth)
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • ½ cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)

Instructions

  1. Cook egg noodles 2 minutes less than package directions; do not rinse. Set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, brown ground beef until no longer pink. Drain excess grease and set beef aside.
  3. In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly to make a roux.
  4. Slowly whisk in beef broth, then milk, stirring until sauce thickens. Add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  5. Reduce heat to low. Stir in the cooked ground beef and noodles until well combined.
  6. Remove from heat and fold in the sour cream until creamy and smooth. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a lighter version.
  • Add sautéed mushrooms or vegetables like peas or spinach.
  • Ground turkey or chicken can replace beef.
  • For a gluten-free version, use GF noodles and flour.
  • If sauce thickens while sitting, stir in a splash of broth or milk.
