Tips & Substitutions
For a creamier stroganoff, consider adding a splash of heavy cream along with the sour cream. You can substitute ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option. If you don't have beef broth, vegetable broth works well. Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or spinach for extra nutrition. This dish can also be made with gluten-free noodles for a suitable variation.
