Total time: 50 min • Prep: 15 min • Cook: 35 min • Serves: 4 • Difficulty: Easy

This classic and decadent dish is perfect, luxurious comfort food to warm the soul. It is a speedy version of Hungarian stroganoff that uses beef tenderloin, an uncommonly tender cut that doesn’t require long, slow cooking. With mushrooms, brandy, and paprika, the flavor is delicious and the aroma intoxicating! Try this over spiralized butternut squash noodles instead of pasta, or serve it over cauliflower rice to up your servings of vegetables. As with many stews, any leftover stroganoff is delicious reheated the next day.
