My quest for the perfect Beef Stroganoff began at a company holiday party

My quest for the perfect Beef Stroganoff began at a company holiday party.  One particularly delicious buffet entree ignited a craving, and I embarked on a recipe-hunting adventure.  Miraculously, the first recipe I found, from Food Network Kitchens, was a home run.  I've made it countless times since, and it's consistently a crowd-pleaser, surprisingly simple to prepare, though perhaps a tad longer than the 30-minute claim – more like 45 minutes in my experience.
