Easy 30 Minute Beef Stroganoff (Dairy Free & Gluten Free)

What is Beef Stroganoff?

Traditionally beef stroganoff is sautéed chunks of beef cooked in a sour cream sauce and served over noodles. This classic dish has its origins from Russia and tends to include mushrooms and a taste of Dijon mustard. I took this traditional recipe and made a few of my own adjustments. First, I replaced the sour cream with ingredients that are dairy free and gluten free. Second, this recipe uses ground turkey instead of beef chunks. Lastly, I swapped the mushrooms for peas because I personally do not like mushrooms!

Ingredients:

Ground turkey
Arrowroot flour
Seasonings: salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder and thyme
Ghee
Beef broth
Dijon mustard
Canned coconut milk
Lemon juice
Coconut aminos
Gluten free egg noodles
Frozen peas

What to Serve with Beef Stroganoff

I grew up eating beef stroganoff with egg noodles and now that Jovial Foods has made a gluten free version, it’s the way I enjoy this recipe. That being said, I know not everyone loves egg noodles. Therefore, feel free to swap the egg noodles for any other type of noodle, rice, cauliflower rice, toast or mashed potatoes!

How to Make Beef Stroganoff Paleo Friendly?

This Easy 30 Minute Beef Stroganoff is not paleo friendly due to the egg noodles (they are made from rice). However, everything else about this recipe can fit into a paleo diet. Therefore, you can easily swap the noodles for a paleo alternative like cauliflower rice or cassava flour noodles!

How to Make Homemade Beef Stroganoff

Step One: Noodles and Ground Turkey

Boil the water and follow the directions on the back of the box to make the noodles. While the water is boiling, brown the meat in a large skillet. Remove the meat from the skillet and set aside.

Step Two: Creamy Sauce

In a medium sized bowl, mix together the salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, beef broth, Dijon mustard, thyme, canned coconut milk, lemon juice and coconut aminos. Add the ghee to the skillet and once it is melted add the rest of the ingredients. Bring to a boil, whisking occasionally to make sure the ingredients are combined. Stir together the arrowroot flour and water in a small bowl to create a roux then add to the skillet. Whisk the sauce on high heat for 1 minute then reduce to medium heat. Add the peas and meat and continue to cook for 6 minutes.

Step Three: Combine and Enjoy

Remove the skillet from the heat then drain the water from the noodles. Add the noodles to the skillet and mix together so they become coated in the sauce and combined with the rest of the ingredients.
