Ingredients
1 pound lean beef (top round)
2 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided
3/4 tablespoon onion, finely chopped
1 pound mushrooms, sliced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 dash black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 cup low-sodium beef broth
1 cup plain low-fat yogurt
6 cups cooked macaroni (prepared in unsalted water)
Directions
Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water before beginning preparation.
Trim any visible fat from the beef and cut it into 1-inch cubes.
Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Add the beef cubes to the skillet and sauté for approximately 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even browning on all sides.
Continue cooking and turning the beef until all sides are browned and the internal temperature reaches 145°F for a medium doneness.
Transfer the cooked beef and onions to a clean plate and set aside, keeping them warm.
Add the remaining 1 teaspoon of oil to the same skillet over medium heat.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes until they release their moisture and begin to soften.
Return the beef and onions to the skillet with the mushrooms.
Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, nutmeg, and dried basil over the mixture and stir gently to combine.
Pour the beef broth into the skillet and stir well to distribute the seasonings.
Remove the skillet from heat and gently fold in the yogurt, stirring slowly until the sauce is smooth and evenly distributed throughout the beef and mushrooms.
Return the skillet to low heat and warm the stroganoff gently, stirring occasionally, until it reaches serving temperature—do not allow it to boil, as this will cause the yogurt sauce to separate.
Divide the cooked macaroni among serving bowls or plates and top with the beef stroganoff mixture. Serve immediately.
