- 2 cloves garlic, minced brings aroma and taste
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced adds earthiness and texture
- 1 teaspoon salt enhances flavors
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper adds spice
- 1 teaspoon paprika adds color and smokiness
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce adds savory depth
- 1 cup beef broth provides moisture and richness
- 1 cup sour cream makes the sauce creamy and tangy

Prepare all ingredients by dicing the onion, mincing the garlic, and slicing the mushrooms.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the diced onion for 3-4 minutes until translucent, then add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Increase heat to medium-high and add ground beef. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula.
Stir in sliced mushrooms, salt, black pepper, paprika, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for another 5 minutes until mushrooms are tender.
Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir well. Gradually add beef broth while stirring constantly for about 2-3 minutes until thickened.
Reduce heat to low and stir in sour cream until fully incorporated. Simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cook egg noodles according to package instructions, drain, and serve beef stroganoff over noodles. Garnish with parsley.
