Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb lean ground turkey 93/7 recommended
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth low sodium
  • 1 cup sour cream full-fat, room temperature
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp butter unsalted
  • 12 oz egg noodles cooked
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Equipment

  • 1 Large skillet or Dutch oven
  • 1 Large Pot (for noodles)

Method
 

  1. Cook egg noodles according to package directions. Drain and toss with a little butter to prevent sticking. Set aside.
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat olive oil and butter. Add the onion and mushrooms and cook until softened and browned, about 5-7 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
  3. Add the ground turkey to the skillet. Cook, breaking it apart, until no longer pink. Drain any excess fat.
  4. Sprinkle flour over the turkey mixture. Stir and cook for 1 minute.
  5. Gradually pour in the beef broth, stirring constantly. Add Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes until the sauce has thickened.
  6. Reduce heat to low. Stir in the room temperature sour cream until the sauce is smooth. Do not let it boil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve the creamy stroganoff over the cooked egg noodles, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

Room Temperature Sour Cream is Key: To prevent the sauce from curdling, make sure your sour cream is at room temperature before adding it to the skillet.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop.
