  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic , minced
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1.5 cups low -sodium beef broth
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp cornstarc h
  • 1 tbsp wate r
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 8 oz whole wheat egg noodles, cooked according to package directions

Instructions

  • Season the beef strips lightly with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear beef in batches until browned, approximately 2 minutes per side. Remove beef from skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add the onion and mushrooms. Sauté until the onions are translucent and the mushrooms have released their moisture and browned, about 7 to 8 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, tomato paste, and smoked paprika. Cook for 60 seconds until fragrant.
  • Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the skillet and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  • Reduce heat to low. Return the seared beef and any accumulated juices to the skillet.
  • Remove the skillet from the heat source. Stir in the Greek yogurt until fully incorporated and the sauce is creamy. Do not boil after adding yogurt to prevent curdling.
  • Serve the beef and sauce over the cooked whole wheat egg noodles and garnish with chopped parsley.
