Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your ingredients and prepare the Dutch oven.
- Heat 1 tablespoon each of butter and extra virgin olive oil in the Dutch oven. Add stew meat coated in flour and sear for 4-5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Add remaining oil and butter, then sauté chopped onions, sliced mushrooms, and minced garlic for 5-7 minutes until tender.
- Deglaze the pot with 2 cups of beef broth, scraping the bottom to lift browned bits.
- Return beef and vegetables to the pot. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, thyme, and black pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes.
- Add cubed cream cheese and stir until melted. Cover and bake for 1.5 to 2 hours.
- After beef is tender, stir in egg noodles, cover, and return to oven for 30 minutes.
- Remove 1 cup of liquid, mix with tomato paste and sour cream, then stir back into the pot before serving.

Notes
Sear beef in batches to avoid overcrowding. Monitor beef tenderness while baking and adjust broth levels as needed. Use warm broth to temper dairy when adding sour cream.
