Skid Road Stroganoff (4-Servings)

  • 12 oz. egg noodles
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/2 tsp. paprika
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • Two 3-oz. cans mushrooms
  • 2 Tbsp. cooking oil
  • 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 Tbsp. flour
  • Chopped parsley
  • Cook egg noodles as directed.

Add cooking oil to large pot. Brown ground beef. Add onion and garlic. Cook for 5 minutes. Add the flour, salt, paprika, and mushrooms, stir, and let it cook for 5 minutes.

Add the soup and simmer for 10 minutes.

Now stir in the sour cream – keeping the heat low, so it won’t curdle – and let it all heat through.

To serve it, pile the noodles on a platter, pile the stroganoff mix on top of the noodles, and sprinkle chopped parsley around with a lavish hand.
