Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp ghee or olive oil or vegan butter for dairy allergies
  • 1 onion diced
  • 3 cloves minced garlic
  • 12 oz cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp sea salt add more to taste
  • ¼ cup sherry cooking wine
  • 2 tsp coconut aminos
  • 2 tsp dijon mustard
  • 3.5 cups beef broth
  • 12 oz Jovial Foods Gluten Free Fusilli or gluten free pasta of choice
  • ½ cup dairy free sour cream feel free to use regular sour cream or plain non-fat Greek yogurt instead!
  • fresh chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

Stove Top Instructions

  • Melt the ghee in a large deep skillet or pot. Add in the onions, garlic, and mushrooms. Sauté for 3-5 minutes until they begin to soften.
  • Add in the ground beef and cook for 3-5 minutes, breaking it apart with a spoon as it browns.
  • Sprinkle in the thyme and salt and stir.
  • Pour in the sherry cooking wine and stir, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Add in the coconut aminos, dijon mustard, beef broth, and pasta. Stir well and cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and cook for 9-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Test your pasta to make sure it's not getting overcooked!
  • Stir in the dairy free sour cream. The sauce will thicken upon standing. Garnish with fresh parsley, serve, and enjoy!

Instant Pot Instructions

  • Hit the Sauté button and add in the ghee. Add the onions, garlic, and mushrooms and sauté for 3-5 minutes. Add in the ground beef and cook it for 5 minutes while breaking it up with a wooden spoon.
  • Pour in the sherry and deglaze the pot, making sure to scrape up any brown bits on the bottom of the pot.
  • Add the remaining ingredients (except for the sour cream) and stir. Lock the lid and cook on high pressure for 4 minutes. Quick release the steam and stir in the sour cream. Stir on sauté mode for a few minutes while the sauce thickens. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Leftovers: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Cover and reheat in the microwave for 2-3 minutes.
Dairy Free: This recipe perfect for dairy allergies as long as you use dairy free sour cream and vegan butter!
Creamy sauce: If you want the sauce to be a little creamier, simply add a bit more sour cream. I love adding in some parmesan for extra flavor, too.
Use a large skillet: Everything cooks in one pot for this recipe, so I recommend using a deep skillet that is at least 12-inches in size so nothing boils over.
