  4. Sprinkle flour over the beef and vegetables. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to create a roux.
    1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  5. Gradually pour in beef broth, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Bring to a simmer.
    2 cups beef broth
  6. Stir in Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and paprika. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.

  7. Remove the skillet from the heat. Gently stir in sour cream until well combined. Pro tip: add a 1/4 cup of the sauce to your sour cream container before mixing to temper the sour cream and reduce the risk of curdling once added to the pot.
