Ingredients
  

2 lbs beef chuck roast, cut into 1-inch pieces

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, finely chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

8 oz mushrooms, sliced (e.g., cremini or button)

1 cup beef broth

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 cup sour cream

2 tablespoons cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

12 oz egg noodles (for serving)

Instructions
 

Sear the Beef: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef chunks and sear them on all sides until browned (about 4-5 minutes). Transfer the beef to the crock pot.

    Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and garlic and sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and soften (about 5 minutes).

      Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked onion, garlic, and mushrooms to the crock pot with the beef. Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine all ingredients.

        Cook: Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the beef is tender.

          Thicken (optional): If you prefer a thicker sauce, in the last 30 minutes of cooking, mix cornstarch with a couple of tablespoons of water until smooth. Stir this slurry into the stroganoff and let it cook uncovered until thickened.

            Finish with Sour Cream: Just before serving, stir in the sour cream until fully combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.

              Serve: Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Serve the beef stroganoff over egg noodles and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
