Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
8 ounces sliced white mushrooms (optional, use 2 cups beef broth if including)
1/2 medium yellow onion, minced
1 tablespoon fresh minced garlic
1.5 cup beef broth (or 2 cups if using mushrooms)
2 tablespoons coconut aminos
2 tablespoons arrowroot or potato starch
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1/2 cup dairy-free sour cream
8 ounces gluten-free pasta (e.g., Banza or other gluten-free pasta)

Instructions

Brown the beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Add the minced onions halfway through cooking, and add sliced mushrooms if using. Cook until the onions and mushrooms are soft. In the last minute, add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
Make the pasta: While the beef is cooking, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the gluten-free pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Make the sauce: In a bowl, whisk together the beef broth, arrowroot or potato starch, coconut aminos, and dijon mustard until smooth. Pour this mixture into the skillet with the cooked beef and vegetables. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Finish it creamy: Stir the dairy-free sour cream into the thickened sauce. Continue to simmer gently until warmed through and creamy, ensuring the sauce does not boil.
Serve hot: Spoon the stroganoff sauce generously over the cooked gluten-free pasta or your preferred gluten-free or Paleo base. Serve immediately and enjoy a hearty, dairy-free, gluten-free meal.

Notes

If using mushrooms, increase beef broth to 2 cups to maintain sauce consistency.
Choose gluten-free pasta brands like Banza for best results in taste and texture.
Arrowroot and potato starch are used as gluten-free thickening agents; either can be substituted based on preference.
For a Paleo base alternative, serve over cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles.
Ensure dairy-free sour cream is well combined and heated gently to prevent curdling.
