01 - 1 lb beef sirloin or tenderloin, thinly sliced

→ Vegetables

02 - 2 tbsp unsalted butter
03 - 1 tbsp olive oil
04 - 1 medium onion, finely chopped
05 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
06 - 10 oz cremini or white mushrooms, sliced

→ Sauces & Dairy

07 - 1 cup beef broth
08 - 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

# Directions:

01 - Heat 1 tablespoon butter and the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef in batches and sear until browned on all sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Remove and set aside.
02 - In the same skillet, melt remaining butter. Sauté onion until translucent, roughly 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in mushrooms and cook until golden and their liquid evaporates, about 5 minutes.
03 - Pour in beef broth, scraping up browned bits from the skillet. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and bring to a simmer.
04 - Lower heat to low and return beef with its juices to the skillet. Stir in Dijon mustard and sour cream until sauce is creamy and well combined. Avoid boiling.
05 - Simmer gently for 2 to 3 minutes until heated through. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
06 - Plate hot egg noodles and spoon the beef and mushroom sauce over them. Garnish with chopped parsley.
