Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs beef sirloin or tenderloin cut into thin strips
  • 8 oz gluten-free egg noodles or rice noodles for extra safety
  • 1 large yellow onion thinly sliced
  • 8 oz baby bella mushrooms sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup gluten-free beef broth certified brands like Kitchen Basics
  • 1 cup sour cream full-fat for richness
  • 2 tablespoons gluten-free flour blend or cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

Step 1: Prep Work

  • Cut beef into 1/4-inch strips for maximum tenderness. Slice onions and mushrooms to similar thickness for even cooking. Season beef generously with salt and pepper.

Step 2: Start the Pasta

  • Boil generously salted water and cook the gluten-free pasta until they’re al dente, as directed on the package. Remember to save about half a cup of the pasta water before you drain them.

Step 3: Sear the Beef

  • To begin, heat olive oil in a large skillet until it’s shimmering over medium-high heat. You’ll want to sear the beef in batches, ensuring a single layer, for about 2 minutes per side until it’s beautifully golden. Once seared, remove the beef and set it aside.

Step 4: Build Aromatics

  • Using the same skillet, melt some butter. Cook the onions until they turn translucent, then introduce the mushrooms and continue cooking until they’re golden and their moisture has cooked off. Stir in the minced garlic for a quick 30 seconds

Step 5: Create the Sauce

  • Sprinkle gluten-free flour over the vegetables, stirring continuously. Gradually whisk in the beef broth to ensure a smooth sauce. Stir in Dijon mustard and paprika, then simmer until the sauce thickens enough

Step 6: Final Assembly

  • Put the seared beef back into the skillet. It’s very important to take the skillet off the heat right away at this point. Carefully stir in the sour cream until the sauce becomes wonderfully smooth and creamy. Give it a taste and add more seasoning if necessary.
