How To Make Beef Stroganoff With London Broil?
To start, you’ll need two 8-ounce packages of white button mushrooms, cleaned, stemmed, and sliced (about 5 cups), as well as a 2 lb London Broil (save 1 lb and juice for stroganoff) and a few other ingredients.
Begin by seasoning the beef generously with salt and pepper. Then, select Browning/Saute on your pressure cooker to preheat the pot. Once hot, add 1 tablespoon of oil and brown the meat in batches for about 3 minutes per batch until all of the meat is browned. Be sure not to crowd the pot, and add more oil as needed.
Transfer the browned meat to a plate and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and butter to the cooking pot. Once the butter melts, add the mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes until golden, stirring only to prevent burning and allowing for the most browning. Transfer to a separate bowl and set aside.
Next, add the onion to the cooking pot and saute for about 3 minutes until soft and beginning to brown. Add the garlic and tomato paste, sauteing for an additional minute. Stir in beef broth to deglaze the pot, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom. Add the browned beef and accumulated juices.
Lock the lid in place on your pressure cooker, select High Pressure, and set it for 18 minutes cook time. When the cook time ends, turn off the pressure cooker and let it release naturally for 10 minutes before finishing with a quick pressure release. Carefully remove the lid.
In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and cold water until smooth. Add this slurry to the pot, select Simmer/Saute, and bring the gravy to a boil while stirring constantly until it thickens. Finally, add sour cream and cooked mushrooms to the cooking pot and stir until blended.
Serve your delicious beef stroganoff over egg noodles for a complete meal that’s sure to impress.
Ingredients You’ll Need
To make this delicious beef stroganoff recipe with London Broil, you’ll need the following ingredients:
– 2 lb London Broil (save 1 lb and juice for stroganoff)
– 8 oz white button mushrooms, cleaned, stemmed, and sliced (about 5 cups)
– 1 large onion, chopped
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 tablespoons tomato paste
– 2 cups beef broth
– 2 tablespoons cornstarch
– 2 tablespoons cold water
– 1/2 cup sour cream
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Egg noodles for serving
Make sure to season the beef with salt and pepper before cooking, and don’t forget to whisk together the cornstarch and cold water to create a slurry for thickening the gravy. With these ingredients on hand, you’ll be able to create a delicious and hearty meal that’s perfect for any occasion.
Preparing The London Broil
To prepare the London Broil for this recipe, start by marinating the meat for 12-24 hours max. This will help tenderize the meat and make it really tasty from the marinade bath. To make the marinade, whisk together 4 garlic cloves (thinly sliced), 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, 2 Tbsp. good-quality balsamic vinegar, 2 Tbsp. soy sauce, and 1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce in a medium bowl or baking dish. Season with freshly ground black pepper and whisk in 3/4 tsp. baking soda (don’t worry if marinade fizzes; that’s the baking soda working).
Once the London Broil is done marinating, remove it from the marinade and discard the marinade. Season the meat generously with salt and pepper, then rub oil mixture all over it. Let it sit at room temperature for an hour or refrigerate up to overnight.
When ready to cook, preheat the broiler to high heat and place the oven rack about 6-7 inches from the broiler heat source. Place the London Broil roast on a foil-lined baking sheet or in a baking dish and broil for 5 – 6 minutes on one side. Then flip the meat and broil the other side for about 4 minutes or until the meat reaches your desired internal temperature (use a meat thermometer to ensure proper cooking temperature). Broiling times will vary depending on the thickness of the meat and your oven.
After broiling, remove the steak from the oven and allow it to rest, tented with aluminum foil for about 5-10 minutes. This allows for the juices to be redistributed through the meat. Finally, slice against the grain with a sharp knife and set aside one pound of meat for your beef stroganoff recipe.
Making The Mushroom Sauce
To make the mushroom sauce for your beef stroganoff, start by cleaning, stemming, and slicing two 8-ounce packages of white button mushrooms (about 5 cups). Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 teaspoons of oil. Once hot, add the beef and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer the meat with its juices to a plate.
Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil to the skillet and add the onions. Cook the onions until they are soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the sliced mushrooms and garlic to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes until the mushrooms are soft and have released most of their water.
Return the beef and juices to the pan and stir to incorporate. Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir until well combined. Add beef broth, wine, salt, and pepper to the skillet and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer until the mixture thickens and reduces slightly for about 5 minutes.
Stir in yogurt and cook for an additional minute. Spoon the mushroom sauce over egg noodles and garnish with parsley. The mushroom sauce adds a rich, earthy flavor to your beef stroganoff that will have your taste buds dancing.
Cooking The Beef Stroganoff In A Pressure Cooker
Cooking beef stroganoff in a pressure cooker is a quick and easy way to have a delicious meal on the table in no time. Start by browning the seasoned beef in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Once all the meat is browned, remove it from the pot and set it aside.
Next, saute the mushrooms until they’re golden brown and transfer them to a separate bowl. Saute the onions and garlic in the same pot until soft and fragrant, then add tomato paste and beef broth to deglaze the pot. Add the browned beef and accumulated juices back to the pot.
Lock the lid in place on your pressure cooker, select High Pressure, and set it for 18 minutes cook time. Once the cook time is up, let it release naturally for 10 minutes before finishing with a quick pressure release. Carefully remove the lid.
To thicken the gravy, whisk together cornstarch and cold water until smooth, then add it to the pot. Select Simmer/Saute and bring the gravy to a boil while stirring constantly until it thickens. Finally, stir in sour cream and cooked mushrooms until blended.
