Mushroom Stroganoff Recipe

Mushroom stroganoff is truly comforting, savory, and just downright delicious. I love a good comfort meal, and this is definitely one of my favorites. The mushrooms also make this meal a healthier alternative to a classic beef stroganoff!

The stroganoff sauce could be served over rice, egg noodles, or if you really want to be healthy, quinoa. However, the egg noodles are my personal favorite. You could even make this recipe vegan with a few simple substitutions. This dish is a classic that everyone will love!

Ingredients Needed

With only 5 minutes of prep time and 20 minutes of cook time, you can have this family favorite meal on the dinner table in no time flat! You can find the full printable recipe in the recipe card at the end of this post. Let’s take a look at what you’ll need:

• wide egg noodles – You can use another type of noodle or base here, but these are the most common for stroganoff. 
• salted butter – Unsalted butter is fine here, but you might want to add some extra salt at the end to taste. 
• yellow onion – If you don’t have a yellow onion, a white one will do in a pinch. 
• mushrooms – Whatever mushrooms you have on hand will also work fine in this recipe. 
• garlic powder – You can never have too much garlic powder! Toss a little extra in there if you really love it. 
• Italian seasoning – This blend really elevates the flavors in this dish. You can buy it at the store or try this Italian Seasoning Recipe to make your own at home!
• Worcestershire sauce – Soy sauce also adds a unique flavor to the recipe if you need a substitute. 
• chicken stock or beef stock – Although the flavor will change slightly, you can use chicken, beef or vegetable stock. 
• cornstarch – This acts as a thickening agent for the stroganoff sauce. 
• heavy cream – Heavy cream makes for a very smooth, thick, and rich sauce!
• sour cream – This can be easily replaced with Greek yogurt if that’s what you have on hand. 
• chopped parsley – This is optional, you can skip the garnish if desired.

How To Make Easy Mushroom Stroganoff

With just a few simple steps, your family will be begging for this easy mushroom stroganoff every night of the week! You can find the full printable recipe in the recipe card at the end of this post.

1. Cook the egg noodles (or pasta of your choice) according to the directions on the package. Don’t forget to salt your water. Drain and set aside (keep some pasta water just in case you want to add it to the dish at the end).
2. Melt the salted butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the onions and cook until they soften and then add in the mushrooms. 
3. Sprinkle in the garlic powder and Italian seasoning. Feel free to be more generous with your seasonings than what I’ve laid out for you. 
4. Cook until mushrooms soften and begin to brown, about 5 minutes depending on the size of your mushrooms. 
5. Pour in the chicken stock and Worcestershire sauce. Bring mixture to a boil and then turn the heat down and let simmer for 3 to 5 minutes.
6. Whisk together the cornstarch and heavy cream in a bowl, then add it to the chicken stock.
7. Whisk in the sour cream and continue to cook until the sauce thickens, about 3 to 5 more minutes. To prevent the sauce from curdling, do not bring to a boil!
8. Add the cooked noodles into the skillet and stir until well combined. 
9. Plate and serve with chopped parsley as a garnish.
