Recipes Main Dishes Beef Beef Stroganoff Recipes Chef John's Classic Beef Stroganoff 4.8 (750) 560 Reviews 106 Photos This classic beef stroganoff recipe is a fairly lean version, as most recipes call for more cream. This is something you can easily adjust to your tastes. I like a little thicker version, with just enough sauce to coat the meat. Serve over buttered noodles.
