Healthier Beef Stroganoff

By brenie_shydee

Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef chuck roast
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1/2 pound white mushrooms, sliced
• 4 green onions, sliced (white and green parts)
• 2 tablespoons butter, divided
• 1/3 cup white wine
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 1/4 cups reduced-sodium beef stock, divided
• 1 teaspoon prepared mustard
• 1/3 cup light sour cream
• salt and ground black pepper to taste

Preparation

Step 1

1. Remove any fat and gristle from the roast and cut into strips 1/2-inch thick by 2-inches long. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.

2. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and green onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are browned, about 6 minutes. Remove to a bowl and add 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet. Cook and stir one half the beef strips until browned, about 5 minutes, then remove to a bowl. Repeat with the remaining butter and beef strips. Pour wine into the hot skillet and deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits.

3. Combine flour and 1/4 cup beef broth in a jar with a tightly fitting lid and shake until combined. Stir into the skillet, whisking until smooth. Stir in the remaining broth and mustard, then return the beef to the pan. Bring to a simmer. Cover and simmer until the meat is tender, about 1 hour.

4. Stir in the prepared mushrooms and the sour cream five minutes before serving. Heat briefly and season with salt and pepper.
