  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp tamari (gluten-free soy sauce)
  • 1½ cups gluten-free beef broth
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch (or arrowroot powder)
  • ¾ cup coconut cream or almond-based sour cream
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
  • Gluten-free pasta, mashed potatoes, or rice for serving

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks.
  2. Add diced onions and garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 2–3 minutes until fragrant and translucent.
  3. Stir in sliced mushrooms and cook until softened and browned, about 5 minutes.
  4. Season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and tamari. Mix well.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk cornstarch into beef broth until dissolved. Pour into the skillet and stir to combine.
  6. Lower the heat and add coconut cream or dairy-free sour cream. Simmer gently until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
  7. Serve hot over gluten-free pasta, mashed potatoes, or rice. Garnish with parsley if desired.

Notes

For a vegetarian version, use mushrooms and lentils instead of beef. Cashew cream or oat-based yogurt also work well in place of coconut cream. Make ahead and store in the fridge up to 3 days. Reheat gently and add a splash of broth if needed.
