Ingredients

• 8 slices bacon
• 1 pound beef sirloin steak
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups beef broth
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 12 ounces egg noodles
• 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet, crumble it into small pieces, and set it aside. Reserve about 2 tablespoons of the bacon grease in the skillet.

Step 2

Cut the beef sirloin steak into thin strips, about 1/2 inch thick. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.

Step 3

Heat the skillet with the bacon grease over medium-high heat. Add the beef strips and sear them for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and mostly cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside.

Step 4

Reduce heat to medium. In the same skillet, add the unsalted butter. Once melted, stir in the diced onions and cook for about 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Stir in the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have released their moisture and are golden brown.

Step 6

Sprinkle the all-purpose flour evenly over the mushrooms and stir until coated. Slowly pour in the beef broth while continually stirring to avoid lumps. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until the sauce begins to thicken.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream, Dijon mustard, paprika, and remaining salt and pepper. Mix well to create a creamy sauce.

Step 8

Return the cooked beef and crumbled bacon to the skillet, stirring to coat them evenly with the sauce. Simmer on low for 5 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

Step 9

While the sauce simmers, cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions in salted boiling water. Drain the noodles and toss them with a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.

Step 10

Serve the Texas Bacon Stroganoff over the egg noodles. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Enjoy!
