Ingredients

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 ½ lbs beef petite shoulder cut into bite size pieces or beef tenderloin
8 ounces cremini or white button mushrooms
½ medium onion chopped
2 cloves minced garlic
2 cups low sodium beef broth
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon onion powder
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup sour cream
8 ounces egg noodles COOKED
1 ½ tablespoons fresh chopped parsley
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Add 1 tablespoon canola oil to a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and brown on both sides. Transfer it to a crock pot. Work in batches, and do not crowd the pan.
Add 1 tablespoon canola oil to the skillet over medium-high heat and add mushrooms and onions. Cook until mushrooms are golden brown, and the onions are soft, approximately 7-8 minutes. Reduce the heat to low. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Remove the vegetables and add to the slow cooker.
Pour 1 1/2 cups beef broth, Worcestershire Sauce, and onion powder into the crock pot. Cook for 2-3 hours on high or 4-6 hours on low.
Stir the remaining beef broth and cornstarch and slowly stir it into the slow cooker. Cover and cook on high for 15-20 minutes or until thickened.
Temper the sour cream by stirring several tablespoons of the hot liquid into it. Do this several times until the sour cream warms.
Stir the tempered sour cream into the crock pot. Salt and pepper to taste, and garnish with fresh chopped parsley. Serve over cooked egg noodles, or add the egg noodles to the slow cooker and stir to coat.

Notes

Sear the meat in hot oil before adding it to the crock pot. The caramelized meat adds flavor and texture to the dish.
For a low-carb dish, skip the egg noodles and serve over mashed cauliflower.
Store leftovers in an airtight container. Reheat in the microwave at reduced power or on the stovetop over low heat.
