Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent.
- Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
- Stir in the cream of mushroom soup and beef broth, letting the mixture simmer for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In the meantime, cook the egg noodles in a pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Combine the cooked egg noodles with the beef mixture, then stir in the sour cream until everything is evenly mixed.
- Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and top with an even layer of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving, if desired.
Variations & Tips
- For a little extra flavor, add 1 cup of sliced mushrooms with the onions and garlic.
- If you like a bit of spice, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the beef mixture.
- Substitute the cream of mushroom soup with cream of chicken if you prefer or have it on hand.
- For a more complete one-dish meal, toss in a couple of handfuls of frozen peas or corn just before baking.
