One Skillet Beef Stroganoff is a family favorite that I make for dinner quite often. I’ve been making this one-skillet main dish as long as my husband and I have been married.

This hearty meal can be made with just a few ingredients from your fridge and pantry. This is also a really quick meal to make on those busy weeknights when you want to put something healthy on the table but you’re short on time!

The only thing I don’t put in this dish, that is traditional in a stroganoff, are mushrooms. No one, except me in our house, likes mushrooms. Feel free to add a can of drained/sliced mushrooms to the mix if you love them!

I’ve also found a few shortcuts to save time and money but keep all the flavor. To cut prep time I like to buy peppers and onions when they go on sale, dice them up and freeze them. It’s a great time-saver on those hectic nights or when I just don’t feel like cutting up veggies. And, frozen pepper and onions cook up faster too.

One Skillet Beef Stroganoff will easily feed a family of four and we usually have leftovers for the next day.
