Turn the Instant Pot to high sauté mode.

Add 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 small onion to the pot.

Add 1 pound of ground beef and cook until the butter melts, separating the beef as it cooks.

Add seasonings: 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of pepper, 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of onion granules; stir to combine.

Add 8 oz of mushrooms cut into bite-sized pieces.

Add 8 oz of egg noodles on top of the mixture.

Pour in 3 cups of beef broth, ensuring the noodles are just barely covered.

Put the lid on the Instant Pot and cancel the sauté mode.

Set to high pressure for 4 minutes and wait for it to beep.

Once at pressure, allow it to cook for 4 minutes.

After cooking, slowly release the pressure, directing the steam away gently.

Remove the lid and check the noodles; they should be cooked.

Add sour cream to the mixture and adjust the consistency with a cornstarch slurry if needed.

Let the dish set for about 5 minutes to absorb excess liquid before serving.

Plate the beef stroganoff and garnish with green onion tops.
