Beef Stroganoff

Planning to make this tonight. I saw it on tv a while back.


Skillet Beef Stroganoff 
America's Test Kitchen Easy Skillet Suppers 

1 1/2 pounds sirloin steak tips, pounded and cut thin across the grain (I used ground beef) 
Salt and pepper 
4 tablespoons vegetable oil 
10 ounces white mushrooms, sliced thin 
1 onion, chopped fine 
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 
1 1/2 cups chicken broth 
1 1/2 cups beef broth 
1/3 cup brandy 
1/3 pound wide egg noodles (3 cups) 
2/3 cup sour cream 
2 teaspoons lemon juice 

1. Pat beef dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Cook half of beef until well browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to medium bowl and repeat with 1 tablespoon more oil and remaining beef. (I just browned all the ground beef in a skillet and then removed to a bowl). 

2. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in now-empty skillet until shimmering. Cook mushrooms, onion, and 1/2 teaspoon salt until liquid from mushrooms has evaporated, about 8 minutes. Stir in flour and cook for 30 seconds, then add both broths and the brandy, and return beef and accumulated juices to pan. Bring to simmer, cover, and cook over low heat until beef is tender, 30 to 35 minutes. (Once I added the ground beef I continued right on to the next step). 

3. Stir noodles into beef mixture, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Off heat, stir in sour cream and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.
