Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 16 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup white onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon garlic cloves, minced or pressed
- ½ cup white wine
- 1 cup low sodium vegetable broth
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, or vegetarian substitute
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- ½ cup sour cream
- 16 ounces wide egg noodles, cooked per package directions
- Parsley, for garnish
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Step 1: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter, mushrooms, and onions. Sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and the onions soften. Then add the garlic and sauté for an additional 30 seconds.
- Step 2: Pour in the white wine to deglaze the pan, using a wooden spoon to gently scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Reduce heat to medium-low and let the sauce simmer for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Step 3: In a separate bowl, whisk together the vegetable broth, Worcestershire sauce, flour, Dijon mustard, and dried thyme. Pour this mixture into the skillet and stir to combine.
- Step 4: Add the sour cream and stir until the sauce is smooth and all ingredients are well incorporated. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
- Step 5: Serve the stroganoff sauce over cooked egg noodles or mashed potatoes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
