Weeknight dinner made easy! This simple Instant Pot Beef Stroganoff recipe is the tasty one-pot way to make beef stroganoff.
Beef stroganoff is one of my favorite dinner recipes. When I have all day, I make it in the slow cooker.
There's just something about the combination of the rich beef and creamy sauce that I love.
This Instant Pot version is an easy, one-pot weeknight version. It's great for those times when you want the flavors of been stroganoff but don't have all day to wait.
Not only is it easy to make, but since it's a one-pot meal, it's that much faster to clean up. Win-win!
How To Make Beef Stroganoff In The Instant Pot
Start by browning the ground beef. Then, drain the beef, and set aside.
Next, saute the vegetables.
Once the vegetables are sauteed, add the browned ground beef, noodles, broth, and the rest of the ingredients to the inner pot.
Add the lid and lock into place. Turn the pressure release valve to SEALING and then cook.
After cooking, stir in the sour cream, and serve topped with parsley.
What makes this the best pressure cooker beef stroganoff
Sometimes beef stroganoff ends up kinda bland. To help pump up the flavor, I've added a bit more garlic along with a bit of mustard and tomato paste to help give it a more complex flavor.
Serving suggestions
I like to serve it with a simple green salad on the side for a quick weeknight dinner. Steamed veggies also work well paired with this dinner.
Some people like to serve beef stroganoff with garlic bread to help sop up any of the remaining sauce.

This was DELICIOUS!! I added a bag of frozen chopped spinach because I felt like I needed an extra veggie in my life besides mushrooms and onions and we forgot to get salad ??♀️ Really, really good!!
Kate
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it!

If i want to double the recipe, would I need to double the cook time as well?
Kate
The cooking time for the noodles should remain the same even if you double the recipe. Hope that helps!
Kim
Is it necessary to cook the noodles first? Thanks
Kate
Hi! No, no need to pre-cook the noodles.
Jennifer
It was a very easy way to prepare this meal and very tasty - thanks for the recipe - I was thinking of reducing the Worcestershire to 1 tbl and add 2 tbl of white wine.
Kate
You're so welcome! Thanks for sharing your tweaks! =)

My family has fallen in love with this meal. I leave out the tomato paste.
Kate
I'm so glad that your family loves this recipe! Thanks for commenting! =)

I made this recipe for dinner tonight and it was great. I used canned mushrooms instead of fresh. To reduced the calories I used Fat Free Greek yogurt and a pinch of baking soda. Easy to make a half of a recipe for a single person.
Kate
Thank you! Fat free Greek yogurt is one of my favorite substitutes. I'm glad that it worked well in this recipe! =)
Kim
The addition of the tomato paste made mine turn out more like a hamburger helper and less like stroganoff. Still yummy though!
Kate
Hi! The tomato paste should just add some depth of flavor. If you find it too noticeable, you can just leave it out next time. Hope that helps!
Sheri
This is definitely the best stroganoff we’ve ever eaten! The flavors were awesome! Thanks for sharing your recipe.
Kate
Yay!! That's wonderful! Thank you so much!

YUMMY! This is our favorite recipe for beef stroganoff. I did omit the mustard and thyme (just personal preference) and it was perfect. Highly recommend this easy and delicious recipe! There is now no other recipe we use.
Kate
Thank you so much! I'm so happy to hear that! Thank you for taking the time to comment.

Do you know how subbing with gluten free (rice) pasta would work? I've not tried them in my instant pot.
Kate
I'm sorry, but I haven't tried using gf rice pasta to say how it would turn out.
Kori
I made it tonight with gluten free pasta and it turned out fine . I misread the directions set the timer for 3 minutes instead of 5 but it was still great
Rebecca
Okay, I don't have an instant pot, but the picture pulled me in. Made the recipe work on top of the stove and it was still delicious. I did have to change how I did a couple things, but it was worth it. Love the flavors!
Kate
I’m so glad that it worked out well on the stove! It’s helpful to hear that. Thanks for commenting!
Michelle
I'm trying to use my instant pot more. This was easy and my family really liked it. It's going on our regular rotation.
Kate
Yay!! I'm so glad! Thanks for commenting. =)
