No Fuss Beef Stroganoff Food

THE ULTIMATE BEEF STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Slice the steak into 2"x1"x1/4" pieces. Heat oil in large skillet and brown beef in single layer (make two batches if necessary). Remove beef from pan and keep warm. It's important to remove the beef as soon as it's lightly browned - don't worry about cooking through, because it will cook through when returned to the sauce.
• In same pan, saute onions, mushrooms, and garlic. Cover if necessary to keep pan from drying out. When vegetables are tender, deglaze pan with chicken broth and wine. Reduce heat to low. Add worchestershire sauce, ketchup, pepper and parsley. Stir, and taste sauce for salt - you probably won't need any due to the salt in the other ingredients. Return beef to skillet, and stir to combine.
• Place sour cream in a small bowl, and add 3 T. of the hot pan sauce, one tablespoon at a time. This warms and thins the cream so it doesn't curdle when added to the pan. Meantime, the sauce in the pan should have reduced, and just barely coats the beef and mushrooms.
• Add the sour cream mixture to the pan, and stir to combine. Sometimes, the sauce will look a bit "grainy" at this point - just increase the heat and reduce a little, and it'll become creamy again.
• Serve over rice or noodles.

LINDA'S BEEF STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Put water on to boil for pasta. Add 2 T. salt to water. When water comes to a boil, add pasta of your choice, and cook according to the pkg. directions, until al dente. When done, drain and set aside.
• In the meantime:.
• Cook onions in pan using enough margarine so they don't stick to the pan.
• When onions are soft, add ground beef. Fry until cooked through. Drain off any excess grease.
• Turn to med-high heat, and add mushrooms (drained) and soup, and mix well.
• Stir in 2 cups of water, add beef bouillon, and mix into the water. Stir all, and let cook for a few minutes. If it starts bubbling too hard, turn heat down to med.
• In a measuring cup, mix 4 T. of constarch with about 1/4 cup of COLD water. When you add this to the mixure, you want the mixture to become thick. (Keep in mind you will be adding sour cream which will thin the sauce, so thicken accordingly). Add more constarch and water mixture, if needed.
• Turn heat down to low, and add sour cream. Do NOT BOIL or cook on high, or it will curdle.
• Season with pepper and salt, as desired.
• Add Kitchen Bouquet, and mix in to get a nice dark color for the sauce.
• Plate pasta, and pour stroganoff over the top.
• Serve.
