   • Begin by cutting the beef into thin, bite-sized strips. It’s easier to do this if the beef is slightly frozen.

2. Cook Aromatics:

   • In a skillet over medium heat, melt a tablespoon of margarine.
   • Add in the sliced mushrooms, chopped onions, and minced garlic. Cook until the onions are tender and translucent. Then, remove this aromatic mixture from the skillet and set it aside.

3. Brown Beef:

   • Using the same skillet, add another tablespoon of margarine and brown the strips of beef until they develop a rich color and are cooked through.

4. Simmer Beef:

   • Stir in 1 cup of beef broth, salt, and Worcestershire sauce into the skillet with the beef.
   • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and let it cook for 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

5. Prepare Noodles:

   • While the beef is simmering, cook the noodles according to the package instructions, if they’re not already cooked.

6. Thicken Sauce:

   • After 15 minutes, mix the remaining 1/2 cup of beef broth with the all-purpose flour until smooth.
   • Stir this flour-broth mixture into the beef, ensuring to minimize lumps.

7. Combine Ingredients:

   • Add back the reserved onion, mushroom, and garlic mixture into the skillet with the beef.
   • Stir well and heat the mixture to boiling.

8. Final Touch:

   • Allow the stroganoff to boil and thicken for about a minute.
   • Finally, stir in the nonfat sour cream until everything is well combined and heated through.

9. Serve:

   • Serve the beef stroganoff over the cooked noodles, garnishing with a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley if desired.

This lighter beef stroganoff is a crowd-pleaser, offering all the comforting flavors you love with a healthier twist. Enjoy every savory bite! 🍽️
