Beef Tenderloin Stroganoff With Cremini Mushrooms Recipes

BEEF STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Trim edges of sirloin of any excess fat. Thinly slice the meat and then slice each piece in half again lengthwise. Slices should be about ½-inch thick by about 2-inches long.
• In a large skillet over MEDIUM-HIGH heat, melt the butter with the vegetable oil. Brown the beef strips quickly in batches, seasoning with salt and pepper as they cook. Be generous with the pepper. Remove beef from pan to a dish and repeat with remaining beef.
• Once all the meat is cooked, add onions and garlic to beef drippings in empty pan. Cook and stir for a couple of minutes. Add wine and cook for a minute or two. Add beef broth, Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce and cook and stir for another minute. Add beef strips and combine well. Bring to a low boil, reduce heat to low, cover pot and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until beef is fork tender.
• Remove about ¼ cup of the cooking liquid from the beef stroganoff to a small bowl. Add cornstarch to the liquid and mix until cornstarch has dissolved. Pour the cornstarch slurry into the beef stroganoff and cook, stirring, for a minute or two as sauce thickens slightly. Add sliced mushrooms and allow to cook, stirring occasionally about 10 minutes. Add cream cheese and sour cream, stir to combine and allow to cook another 5 minutes or until the cream cheese has completely melted into the sauce. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper if needed. Sprinkle with fresh chives and serve over rice.

CLASSIC BEEF STROGANOFF WITH TENDERLOIN

• Add last 3 Tbl. butter to pan with remaining juices, turn heat up to medium high/high heat, add seasoned beef using a slotted spoon or tongs leaving any juices behind in the bowl. Sauté beef quickly, turning once or twice, until lightly browned but leaving beef RARE. Remove with slotted spoon to bowl with mushrooms and onions. (*Discard meat juices from beef bowl).
• Reduce heat to medium. Add flour and stir. (*Don't worry if it's super pasty. Everything will all come together). Cook and stir 1 minute, slowly whisk in consommé and beef bouillon, a little at a time until no longer lumpy. Reduce heat to low.
• Stir in tomato paste or chili sauce, dry mustard, and sherry or wine until smooth. Add beef, mushrooms and onions. Slow simmer for 20 minutes, stirring only occasionally making sure meat and veggies are submerged in the sauce. Then set aside with lid tilted.

• Stir sour cream into stroganoff/meat mixture and rewarm over very low heat just until warmed through again. (Do not boil or sour cream could curdle). Just a couple of minutes if that. Taste, and add more salt and pepper if needed. (*I usually like to add a little more pepper is all).
• Serve stroganoff over hot cooked buttered noodles and garnish with finely chopped fresh parsley if you'd like to pretty it up. Enjoy!

BEEF TENDERLOIN STROGANOFF WITH CREMINI MUSHROOMS

Steps:

Melt 3 Tbl. butter in heavy skillet, add onions and saute til just soft. Add mushrooms and cook 3-5 minutes longer til mushrooms are soft and onions are browning. Remove from pan, set aside. Add remaining Tbl. of butter to pan and turn up the heat. Toss in steak and garlic making sure the pieces of steak are all laying flat, sear quickly on both sides leaving RARE. Remove meat and set aside, (back into it's original bowl is just fine.) Blend flour into butter and juices in pan. Cook and stir for 1-2 minutes. Do not brown. Gradually add beef bouillon, stirring constantly, until smooth and thickened. Add tomato paste and wine and blend thoroughly. Add steak, garlic, mushrooms and onions back into pan, heat through on low heat for rare-medium rare stirring gently. (Cook longer for medium to well. Up to 20 minutes.) Blend in sour cream 5 minutes before serving over LOW heat so it doesn't to curdle. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve over cooked egg noodles. *Can garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired.
• 2. Bouillon tip: I always use "Superior Touch Better Than Bouillon Beef Base". It's world's apart from cubes or granules. No comparison.

BEEF STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Brown the strips of beef in butter: Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet on medium heat. Increase the heat to high/med-high. Add the strips of beef in a single layer with space between the strips. You want to cook the beef quickly, browning on each side, so the temp needs to be high enough to brown the beef, but not so high as to burn the butter. You may need to work in batches. While cooking the beef, sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. When both sides are browned, remove the beef to a bowl and set aside.
• Sauté the shallots: In the same pan, reduce the heat to medium and add the shallots. Cook the shallots for a minute or two, allowing them to soak up any meat drippings. Remove the shallots to the same bowl as the meat and set aside.
• Sauté the mushrooms, then season: In the same pan, melt another 2 tablespoons of butter. Increase heat to medium high and add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally for about 4 minutes. While cooking, sprinkle the nutmeg and the tarragon on the mushrooms.
• Add the sour cream, beef, and shallots: Reduce the heat to low and add the sour cream to the mushrooms. You may want to add a tablespoon or two of water or stock to thin the sauce (or not). Mix in the sour cream thoroughly. Do not let it come to a simmer or boil or the sour cream may curdle. Stir in the beef and shallots. Add salt and pepper to taste. Note that you will likely need more salt than you expect. Taste, and if it needs salt, add 1/2 teaspoon or more.
• Serve: Serve immediately over egg noodles, fettuccine, mashed potatoes, or rice. (Potatoes, rice, and gluten-free pasta are gluten-free options.)

MUSHROOM STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Place a large (12-inch) skillet on medium-high heat. Add olive oil and onion, season with salt, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until softened. Add the mushrooms, thyme and garlic, and stir to combine. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, leaving it undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes at a time before stirring, to allow the mushrooms to caramelize.
• Pour in the wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom, then cook for about 1 minute. Add the vegetable stock and soy sauce, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the liquid has reduced and is slightly thickened.
• Take the pan off the heat, and stir in the mustard and crème fraîche. Taste, and season with salt and black pepper. Dust with paprika, scatter with parsley and serve with your choice of mashed potatoes, wide egg noodles or rice.
