Tender beef strips in a rich sour cream and mushroom sauce over egg noodles

Beef stroganoff is a Russian classic that's become a worldwide comfort food favorite. Tender strips of beef and earthy mushrooms in a deeply savory sauce enriched with sour cream.
Sear the beef over high heat in batches — crowding the pan steams the meat instead of browning it.
Add the sour cream off the heat to prevent curdling. Serve over buttered egg noodles.
