Leftover Prime Rib Stroganoff Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp Olive oil extra virgin
- 1 Shallot minced
- 1/2 tbsp Garlic minced
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 2 tbsp All-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp Tarragon
- 1/2 tsp Ground sage
- 1/2 tsp Thyme
- 1/4 tsp Salt to taste
- 1/8 tsp Ground black pepper to taste
- 1 cup Baby Portabella Mushrooms stemmed and sliced
- 1 1/2 cups Beef broth
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tbso Coarse ground Dijon Mustard
- 1 lb Leftover prime rib roast sliced into 2-inch strips
- 1/4 cup Sour cream
- 8 oz Egg noodles rinsed and drained
- 2 tbsp Parsley chopped (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large, deep frying pan or dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add minced shallot and garlic, and cook for about 1 minute until shallot begins to soften. Add butter and melt it with the shallot and garlic.
- Sprinkle all-purpose flour over the mixture and stir to combine until the flour is absorbed. Add tarragon, ground sage, thyme, salt, pepper, and mushrooms. Stir well to combine.
- Pour in beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Stir everything together and reduce the heat to medium. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 10 minutes, adjusting heat as needed to maintain a low simmer, until the gravy thickens.
- Once the gravy has thickened slightly, add the sliced leftover prime rib roast. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is heated through.
- Remove from heat and stir in sour cream until well combined. Serve immediately over cooked pasta, rice, or potatoes. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Notes
- Use Leftover Prime Rib: The key to this recipe is using leftover prime rib, which is already seasoned and tender. Slice it into strips and add it towards the end of cooking to retain its flavor and texture.
- Adjust Seasoning to Taste: Taste the gravy before adding the prime rib and adjust the seasoning as needed. You can add more salt, pepper, or herbs to suit your preference.
- Choose the Right Pasta: While egg noodles are traditional, feel free to experiment with other pasta varieties like fettuccine or even serve over mashed potatoes for a comforting twist. Adjust cooking times accordingly to ensure everything is hot and well combined.

How Do I Store and Reheat Leftover Stroganoff?
After cooking, let the stroganoff cool down to room temperature. Transfer it to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you’re ready to reheat, you can use a skillet on medium-low heat or a microwave.
If using the microwave, heat in short bursts and stir frequently to ensure even heating. You might need to add a splash of beef broth or water to the skillet to prevent the sauce from thickening too much while reheating.
Can I Use Other Types of Meat Instead of Prime Rib?
Yes, you can! While this recipe is a great way to use leftover prime rib, you can substitute with other leftover meats such as roast beef, steak, or even cooked chicken. If using uncooked meat, be sure to cook it thoroughly in the initial steps of the recipe before proceeding with the rest of the instructions. This recipe is quite versatile and can adapt to different types of meats you have on hand.
