Instant Pot Beef Stroganoff
Do you want something super easy that you can just throw together in the Instant Pot and move on with life? This is the recipe for you. Just throw beef, mushrooms, cream of mushroom soup, onion soup mix and water in the pot and you’re good to go. If you aren’t a fan of cream of soups and packets of onion soup mix I’ve included a less processed version of the recipe below the original recipe. After the meat cooks until tender, you’ll add some sour cream to give it that zippy taste. We love to serve our instant pot beef stroganoff over egg noodles. But if you want, you could serve it over rice or mashed potatoes.
This recipe is so easy you can even enlist the help of your children. Here is my daughter demonstrating how to make instant pot beef stroganoff:

What Instant Pot Did You Use?
For this Instant Pot Beef Stroganoff I used my 6 quart Instant Pot Duo 60 7 in 1 for this recipe. I also own the 6 quart Instant Pot IP-LUX60 V3 Programmable Electric Pressure Cooker. They are both great pressure cookers! The first one I mentioned has a yogurt making function but other than that they are fairly similar. The price difference between the two is about $20.

Description
A super easy recipe for beef and mushrooms with a zippy sour cream sauce made quickly in the pressure cooker.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs beef stew meat (or 1 1/2 lbs beef chuck roast cut into bite size cubes)
- 16 oz sliced mushrooms
- 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 (1.25 oz) packet onion soup mix

- 2 Tbsp all purpose flour
- Hot, cooked egg noodles

I just made this amazingly flavorful dish! I made a few changes: I seasoned and sauteed the beef for a short time on each side in two batches – then removed the meat to a plate. I deglazed with wine, then added 1/2 sliced onion and a few minced cloves of garlic and let it sautee for about five minutes. Then I proceeded as directed, adding about 3-4 stems of fresh thyme. I found that I could add a few more minutes to the pressure cooking and I did need another Tb of flour to thicken a bit more. I will serve this over curly noodles tonight for dinner. Can’t wait – as the sauce was so delicious I was licking my fingers while removing it from the pot. Thanks for this simple yet yummy recipe for a dish that could have been more complicated. I love that I can use beef stew meat and not have to purchase steak.
So happy you enjoyed it and yay for leftovers!
Hi Karen,
I Have just purchased an instant pot duo 8 model, it came with the manual but nothing to get me started with a few recipes ideas.
Please can you help me.

You’d think you would brown and drain the meat first otherwise it would be a greasy mess with congealed fat and blood in it.
It seems to work fine with the beef stew meat, not greasy at all.
We have made this in our crockpot multiple times and the instant pot version is in the IP right now. We’re a celiac family and this is one of our favorite meals. It’s tasty and delicious, even days later. We have frozen half of it and thawed it weeks later. Just as yummy! We also love it over roasted garlic mashed potatoes. It’s a hearty meal for sure! Thanks so much for posting multiple options for this recipe 🙂
So glad you like it Jenna! Thanks for sharing.
Turned out very good. A few changes were made based on what was available. Only had 1 lb. of meat, but will use 1 1/2 lbs. next time. Only had about 1/4 cup of Greek yogurt, so added about 2 oz. of cream cheese along with it. Used chives instead of green onions. I browned the meat 1st without using any oil.
I like the idea of the cream cheese!
Could you substitute chicken for the beef? And if so would the cook time be less or the same?
Yes. If it was chicken in pieces you would only need about 5 minutes of cooking time. Maybe even less than that.
Do you use fresh mushrooms?
yes I did.
Hi Karen,
If I want to make this as a freezer meal, would I combine all the ingredients from step 1, and then cook as directed? Will the mushrooms hold up in the freezer?
I think they will do fine. That is what I’d do!
How could I adjust this recipe for frozen stew meat? Thank you!
Just keep the cooking time the same. It will just take longer to come to pressure if it is frozen.
I have noticed that your roast recipes don’t have us browning the meat on sauté before pressurizing them. I’ve been doing that when I cook meat in it and it usually tastes great. Do you not think it makes a difference? If I brown it first, do I reduce the cooking time?
If you take the time to brown the beef it will definitely have a better flavor! Sometimes I am just too lazy. Don’t worry about changing the cooking time. It will be the same, or similar.
Could I use ground beef instead of stew meat?
I think you could, but you would need to cut the cooking time down.
Thank you for sharing this fabulous recipe!
I tripled the recipe for my 8 quart IP, using the non-processed version. It was phenomenal. My 11 year old son gave me the highest complement when he asked if this could be his choice for his next birthday meal. 🙂
I’d highly recommend trying this. The beef was super tender after 15 minutes, done to perfection. I didn’t have dried onion on hand, so substituted dried garlic and it was fine.
The only possible negative of this recipe is that you can’t (and shouldn’t) cook the noodles in the IP, b/c it would be too long. But this just shows how spoiled I am with my IP, that I’m so used to cooking meals all at once. 🙂
so happy to hear this! Thanks so much Christine!
I have made in my pro pressure cooker.all ingredients.except i brown meat.add the rest.and egg noodles cook on 7 min on fish/veggie cycle.
Thanks for also posting the no processed version. I don’t always have a can of soup on hand 🙂 Love your recipes!! Your daughter did awesome in this video, I loved catching it on Facebook!
you’re welcome!!!
She is soooo adorable…a budding cook! I just saved this recipe, as I have so many of yours and have shared your site with friends too.
Thank you so much Irene!
Hi. Is there any way to make the noodles, rice, potatoes (mashed) at the same time? Or is it just easier to make them separate? Thanks!
I have thought about this and I definitely don’t think that adding the noodles in with the meat would work. They would be totally mushy. I am thinking that you could make rice at the same time though or even potatoes. I would add a bowl inside the instant pot like I did with this recipe: https://www.365daysofcrockpot.com/instant-pot-hawaiian-haystacks/
Let me know how it turns out!
Love how easy this is! Thanks for linking to my recipe.
