1

Slice 8 ounces of white button mushrooms.

2

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a pot over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Add the sliced mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon of salt; cook for 5-7 minutes until the liquid evaporates and mushrooms begin to brown.

4

Transfer the cooked mushrooms to a bowl and set aside.

5

Add another tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pot.

6

Add 1 finely chopped onion, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the pot; cook for about 5 minutes until softened.

7

Add 1 pound of 85% ground beef to the pot; season with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper; cook for 5-7 minutes until no pink remains.

8

Stir in 3 tablespoons of flour and cook for about 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.

9

Deglaze the pot with 1/4 cup of white wine, scraping the bottom to release the fond.

10

Add 4 cups of chicken broth and bring to a simmer; cook for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.

11

Add 8 ounces of egg noodles directly into the pot; cook uncovered, stirring occasionally for 10-12 minutes until noodles are cooked through.

Turn off the heat and stir in 1/2 cup of sour cream and the reserved mushrooms; mix well.

Add minced chives to finish.
