Easy Instant Pot Ground Beef Stroganoff recipe! This quick weeknight dinner is packed with flavor and is ready in less than 30 minutes.
When I was a kid, there were certain dishes that I thought of as being really fancy. Stroganoff was one of those recipes that kid me thought of as fancy, and I think that's one of the reasons that I liked it so much.
Traditional stroganoff can take some time, but this Instant Pot ground beef stroganoff makes it a quick and easy weeknight meal.
Serve it alongside a green salad and you have a quick, tasty dinner that's so easy to make.
How to make ground beef stroganoff in the Instant Pot
Step 1: Cook the ground beef. Drain the fat and return to the inner pot.
Step 2: Add the onion and garlic. Stir in.
Step 3: Stir in the flour, salt, and pepper.
Step 4: Deglaze the inner pot with the beef broth. Scrape up browned bits from the bottom of the pan. This will help to avoid burn warnings.
Step 5: Stir in the mushrooms, noodles, and tomato paste. Cook.
Step 6: Stir the cornstarch and water together. Add the cornstarch mixture, mustard, and sour cream. Stir to combine.
Tips
- Beef: I use 85% lean ground beef. You can use leaner (or fattier) ground beef if you prefer. You can also sub in ground turkey if you like.
- Mini lasagna noodles: My local grocery store calls them mini lasagna noodles, but I've also seen them called "malfalda" or "malfalda corta".
- Sour cream: Plain Greek yogurt (skim, 2%, or whole milk) can be used in place of the sour cream. I don't recommend using fat-free sour cream in this recipe.
Storage
Store any leftover stroganoff in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The leftovers will keep for up to 4 days when properly stored.

Loved the simplicity of this recipe! I doubled and it was cooked perfectly using to the directions. I did alter a bit: used wide egg noodles, replaced sour cream w/Greek yogurt & used 2x the amount of it & the mustard, & added quite a bit more salt & pepper. I also added 2 T of Worcestershire sauce which gave a really tasty additional flavor. I will definitely make this again with the alterations. Thanks for the simple, tasty recipe!
