Serves: 6 · Total time: ~40 minutes · Why it works: browning builds flavor, noodles cook in the same pot for convenience, and sour cream added off heat stays silky.

- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 tbsp butter
- 10 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 1 onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp smoked paprika

2) Stir in garlic and paprika for 30 seconds, sprinkle in flour, and cook 1 minute.
3) Pour in broth and Worcestershire, scraping up any browned bits, bring to a boil, and add egg noodles.
