Mushroom Beef Stroganoff

I think I’m pretty set knowing that beef stroganoff will never be one of my signature dishes nor will it be one of my go to meals. This is the best recipe I’ve tried so far, but I’ve just come to realize it’s just not in the cards for me and I’m not a super fan of stroganoff in general. I like that the sauce had some good flavor it and you can’t go wrong adding alcohol haha. Overall if I have to make it I would use this recipe again, however I’m open to other uses for stroganoff meat if you have any…

1/4 cup sour cream

Gradually add broth, whisking constantly, and bring to a boil; cook until thick, about 2 minutes.

To make beef and mushrooms: Heat remaining butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly season beef with salt and pepper. Add to skillet and cook until just cooked through, about 3 minutes. Transfer beef to a plate.
