    Beef Stroganoff with Ground Beef

    This ground beef stroganoff recipe calls for simple ingredients, available all year round in most grocery stores. Moreover, it is more budget-friendly than classic beef stroganoff and even chicken stroganoff.

    It also cooks faster and has a creamy sauce and comforting flavors.

    It’s pure comfort food, making the most delicious meal!

    Ingredients and Substitutions for Easy Ground Beef Stroganoff

    This is one of those easy recipes the whole family will enjoy. To make this easy ground beef stroganoff recipe, you will need:

    • Ground Beef – I used 90% lean meat but you can use regular ground beef and drain off most of the fat after browning the beef. You can also replace it with ground turkey, chicken, or pork.
    • Olive oil – You can use butter instead.
    • Vegetables – I used fresh garlic, onion, and white mushrooms, but you can swap them for baby Bella or cremini mushrooms that cost more but have a better flavor.
    • Dry white wine – If you don’t have this at home, you can use regular white wine or even red wine to deglaze the Instant Pot and add acidity to this ground beef stew.
    • Beef broth – Either beef broth or stock will work wonders!
    • Seasonings – I added salt, ground black pepper, and paprika but you can add any other seasonings of your choice, such as garlic powder, onion powder, and dried herbs.
    • Condiments – Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and tomato paste will boost the flavor of our ground beef stroganoff.
    • Full-fat sour cream – You can certainly swap Greek yogurt, softened cream cheese, or heavy whipping cream to add creaminess to our stew.
    • Xanthan gum – This works as a keto thickener, but if you’re not on a low carb diet, you can replace it with cornstarch. The ratio is 1:1 (the same amount). If using all-purpose flour, use double the amount of flour as that called for xanthan gum (e.g. 1 teaspoon xanthan gum = 2 teaspoon flour) dissolved in cold water. If you prefer, use a can of cream of mushroom soup instead.

    How to Make Ground Beef Stroganoff

    1. To make this ground beef stroganoff in the Instant Pot, press the sauté button and let the pot heat for about 2-3 minutes. Then add olive oil, onion, and mushrooms. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring every now and then until the onion has softened and the mushrooms are brown. SEE PIC. 1 Using a slotted spoon, transfer them to a bowl.
    2. Add the ground beef and let it brown, stirring occasionally (about 5 minutes). If you are not using lean beef, drain the excess fat. Add the garlic and cook for about 1 minute. Season the beef with salt, pepper, and paprika. SEE PIC. 2
    3. Add the wine and let it cook until the alcohol has mostly evaporated (about 1-2 minutes). Put the sauteed onions and mushrooms back into the pot and then, stir in tomato paste, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and beef broth. SEE PIC. 3 Lock the lid, turn the valve to sealing, and cook on High Pressure for about 5 minutes. Wait 5 minutes before releasing the pressure.
    4. Press the sauté button and stir in the xanthan gum until the stroganoff sauce has thickened (about 1-2 minutes). Lastly, stir in the sour cream and sprinkle fresh parsley on top. SEE PIC. 4
    5. Serve over zoodles or cauliflower rice (low carb options) or over al dente egg noodles, white rice, or mashed potatoes.

    Variations of Instant Pot Ground Beef Stroganoff

    Adapt this easy dinner recipe by using a different type of protein to make the following:

    • For hamburger stroganoff --  This can be used as a synonym for ground beef stroganoff because both use ground beef as the main ingredient, or it can be made with hamburger helper.
    • For ground turkey stroganoff – Just substitute ground turkey for ground beef and chicken broth for beef broth!!

    WHAT TO SERVE WITH KETO BEEF STROGANOFF

    The options are many, as you can see below:

    • Low carb sides – mashed cauliflower, cauliflower rice, or zoodles.
    • Regular sides – mashed potatoes, white rice such as Jasmine rice or Basmati rice, a hard-crusted bread such as this Irish soda bread, or egg noodles.

    There you’ll have it-- a complete meal the entire family will love!

      You had the mushrooms and onions removed to a separate bowl.... but don't say when to add them back in.

        Thank you for letting me know. I apologize for that! I have just edited the recipe to state the sauteed onions and mushrooms should be added back to the pot after adding the wine to the IP (step 3).
