Method

01

Brown the mushrooms

Cook noodles in salted water according to package directions; drain. Meanwhile, heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high. Add mushrooms in a mostly single layer and cook undisturbed 3 to 4 minutes, then stir and cook until deeply browned, 6 to 8 minutes total. Season with a pinch of salt.

02

Build the creamy sauce

Add onion and cook 3 minutes until soft. Stir in garlic 30 seconds. Sprinkle flour and cook 1 minute. Pour in broth, Dijon, and Worcestershire, scraping up browned bits. Simmer 2 to 3 minutes until slightly thickened. Lower heat and stir in sour cream until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.

03

Toss and serve

Fold drained noodles into the skillet (or spoon sauce over noodles). Finish with parsley and a pinch of paprika. Serve warm.
