Campfire Beef Stroganoff

Here is an easy recipe for classic Beef Stroganoff! This dish is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a campfire meal.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb (450g) Lazy T Sirloin Steak or Tenderloin, sliced into thin strips

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 2 tbsp butter

• 1 medium onion, finely chopped

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 8 oz (225g) mushrooms, sliced (white or cremini work well)

• 1 tbsp flour (optional, for thickening)

• 1 cup beef broth

• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

• 1 tsp Dijon mustard

• ½ cup sour cream (or crème fraîche)

• Salt and pepper, to taste

• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

• Egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or rice (for serving)

Instructions:

1. Sear the beef:

• Season the beef strips with salt and pepper.

• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat olive oil. Add the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding, and sear quickly until browned (about 1–2 minutes per side). Remove and set aside.

2. Sauté the vegetables:

• Reduce heat to medium. Add butter to the skillet.

• Sauté onions until soft, about 4 minutes. Add garlic and mushrooms, cooking until the mushrooms are browned and tender (about 6–8 minutes).

3. Deglaze and thicken:

• Sprinkle in the flour and stir to coat (optional, for a thicker sauce).

• Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Stir well, scraping up any bits from the bottom.

• Simmer for 5–7 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

4. Finish the sauce:

• Reduce heat to low. Stir in the sour cream until smooth.

• Return the beef (and any juices) to the pan, and gently heat through for 2–3 minutes. Do not boil or the sour cream may curdle.

5. Serve:

• Spoon over egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or rice.

• Garnish with chopped parsley.
