One Pot Ground Beef Stroganoff

One Pot Ground Beef Stroganoff 

Serves 4 

3 Tbsp EVOO, divided 

8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced 

S&P 

½ c diced onion 

2 cloves garlic 

1 lb ground beef 

2 tsp paprika 

3-4 c low sodium beef broth (maybe less) 

8 oz dry rotini 

Dollop of tomato paste or catsup 

½ c sour cream 

fresh parsley, for serving 

Heat 1 Tbsp of the EVOO over medium heat in a pot or large skillet. Add the mushrooms and cook until they are tender, about 5 minutes. Season with S&P, then remove from the pot into a bowl and set aside. Heat the remaining 2 Tbsp of EVOO in the same pot. Add the onion, season with S&P, and cook until translucent, 4-5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Add the ground beef and continue to cook, breaking up the beef with a spoon as it cooks, until it is browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the paprika over the top and stir to continue. Pour the beef broth and the pasta. Bring to a light boil then cover the pot. Continue to cook, stirring often, until the pasta is al dente, 17-20 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the mushrooms, adding a dollop of tomato paste or catsup. Stir well, then add sour cream. Serve topped with fresh parsley.
