1cupBeef Broth
10ozBella Mushrooms,chopped
1cupSour Cream
12ozEgg Noodles or pasta of choice,cooked
Parmesan cheese,optional
Instructions
Season the beef with salt and pepper. Turn on the saute function of the instant pot and heat the oil. When hot, sear the beef in batches. This may add a bit of work but searing the beef enhances the flavor of the dish so I highly recommend not skipping this. Set the beef aside.
In the remaining oil (add extra oil if needed) saute the garlic and onion until aromatic, about 1 minute. Add the paprika, garlic powder, thyme and Worcestershire sauce. Give it a quick stir. Pour in the red wine and deglaze the pan. Return the beef to the pot. Pour in the beef broth.
Turn off the saute function. Lock the lid and ensure it's on sealing position. Click on manual setting and adjust timer to 20 minutes on high pressure. Once the timer is done, allow to release naturally for 10 minutes or so.
Uncover the lid. Turn on saute function and add the mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms are tender. If there is extra liquid, just continue to cook until enough has evaporated.
Add the sour cream and cook until the sauce it thickened to your liking. Taste and season with extra salt and pepper, if desired.
Serve with the cooked egg noodles and sprinkle with extra parmesan on top. This may also be eaten with rice. So yummy!
Notes
TIPS & TRICKSFor other meat or beef options, you may also use either boneless chuck steak (some fat in meat) or round steak (the latter is leaner).Red wine makes a huge difference in flavor so use a good quality wine (not cooking wine) If you can’t have it simply replace it with extra beef broth.
