Pork Tips Stroganoff with Mushrooms and Onion
I often find myself doing a lot of nostalgic cooking. By that I mean, I like to prepare comforting dishes that are similar to the kinds of recipes my Mom made for us when we were all kids. Dishes like fried chicken and gravy, smothered chicken or chicken fried steak just to name a few. I have two brothers, and being the middle child, it was imperative that I got to the table on time or, I might lose out. My Mom is a terrific Southern cook but, if asked she would describe herself as a "country cook." She too, makes the types of dishes that her Mother made and so on. It's the circle of life.
My family's taste may differ a bit from what we considered every day foods eaten during my childhood. That said, comfort food like this dish is always a happy sight to see on the dinner table.This decadent pork tip stroganoff would fall into the category of comfortable tummy filling food that always hits the spot.

This is one of the most delectable recipes I have found in quite some time. I halved the recipe and there was still enough for my husband and me to have two meals. I served the stroganoff over narrow noodles. My husband, who makes "the best" beef stroganoff was totally impressed with the layers of flavor and the silkiness of the sauce. I especially like the idea of mixing flour into the sour cream and mixing both into the sauce. I think that decreases the propensity for a "breaking sauce". I used all the spices indicated in the recipe and also added a healthy tsp. of Mrs. Dash Original seasoning. I didn't have pork tips, so (as you suggested) I used a small pork tenderloin. This recipe is definitely a "keeper". Thank you for sharing with your readers.

Hi Anne, thanks so much, I'm delighted you all loved this!

In a move quite unusual for me, I followed this recipe exactly! It was delicious! I might suggest that you specify unsalted butter. Between the garlic salt and lemon pepper and salted butter, the dish was only slightly more salty for my taste.
Melissa
Unsalted butter wouldn't make that big a difference. You should always adjust salt to your personal taste.

What are Pork tips? Really enjoy so many of your recipes.
Melissa
These tips were made from a whole pork loin. You could cut up pork chops or tenderloin whatever is your preference.

Hi Melissa - the picture seems to show bits of tomato but I do not see tomato in the ingredients list. Am I crazy?
Melissa
No tomatoes, just bacon.
