QUICK BEEF GOULASH WITH EGG NOODLES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Slice the steaks as thinly as possible (about 1/8 inch) on an angle, trimming off any large pockets of fat. Season with salt and pepper. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced steak, spreading it out in a single layer. Increase the heat to high and cook, undisturbed, until browned on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the steak and any juices to a bowl.
• Add 2 tablespoons of the remaining butter to the skillet and reduce the heat to medium high. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften and brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the bell peppers, paprika, caraway seeds, a big pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the spices are toasted, about 1 minute. Return the steak to the skillet along with the tomatoes, beef broth and 1 teaspoon salt. Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook, partially covered, until the steak is tender, about 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, cook the egg noodles in the boiling water as the label directs. Drain and return the noodles to the pot; stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Season with salt. Divide the noodles and stew among bowls. Top with the parsley and sour cream.
