Beef and Noodles 

Ingredients:

- 1 lb (450g) beef sirloin, thinly sliced

- 8 oz (225g) wide egg noodles

- 2 tablespoons olive oil

- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1 teaspoon onion powder

- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

- 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning

- Salt and pepper to taste

- 1 cup (240ml) beef broth

- 1/2 cup (120ml) sour cream

- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Noodles:

   - Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. Season the Beef:

   - In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced beef with onion powder, garlic powder, Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat the beef evenly.

3. Cook the Beef:

   - Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

   - Add the seasoned beef slices to the skillet and cook until browned on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

4. Sauté Onion and Garlic:

   - In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil if needed.

   - Add the sliced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the onion is soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

5. Combine Beef and Onion Mixture:

   - Return the cooked beef slices to the skillet with the onion and garlic mixture. Stir to combine.

6. Add Beef Broth:

   - Pour the beef broth into the skillet. Stir well to deglaze the bottom of the skillet, scraping up any browned bits.

7. Simmer:

   - Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.

8. Finish with Sour Cream:

   - Once the sauce has thickened, remove the skillet from the heat.

   - Stir in the sour cream until well incorporated. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary.

Serve:

   - Serve the beef and onion mixture over the cooked egg noodles.

   - Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

   

Enjoy!
