Beef Stroganoff

We just got back from New York - and we had some Philly Cheesesteaks at Yankee Stadium that tasted like beef stroganoff, so I was totally craving the real thing!!  I've made/posted this before - but wanted to try a healthier/different recipe.  Got this from OBB cookbook - and it was really good!!  Super easy to make - and has easy ingredients!!  Really liked the steak instead of hamburger...and the sauce was amazing.  Fresh mushrooms really made a difference too!!

Serves 4

Ingredients:
1lb top sirloin or tenderloin steak (I used tenderloin)
salt and pepper
3 tablespoon butter
8oz sliced mushrooms
3/4 cup diced onion (about 1 small onion)
4 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 cup warm water
1 teaspoon beef bouillon granules, beef base, or one bouillon cube
2 tablespoons flour
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup sour cream
egg noodles / rice

Slice steak into strips 1/4 inch thick and about 2 inches long.  Sprinkle with salt and pepper and set aside.  Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet, over medium heat and then add mushrooms, onion, and garlic to pan.  Saute for 4-5 minutes or until mushrooms are browned and onions are tender.  Remove mushrooms, onions, and garlic from pan and set aside.

Slightly increase the heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter in pan.  Add beef and saute, stirring, for 3-5 minutes or until pink is no longer visible.

While the beef is cooking, whisk water, bouillon, flour and Worcestershire sauce together until smooth.  Add this mixture to the beef and return the mushroom mixture to the pan as well.  Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 1-2 minutes to thicken.  Remove pan from heat and stir in sour cream.  Add salt and pepper to taste.  Serve over egg noodles or rice.
