Note
The original recipe lists 2 tablespoons of salt, which is extremely high for one pound of beef. Taste before adding full amounts and adjust to preference, likely using only 1/2 to 1 teaspoon.
Ensure the sour cream is at room temperature before adding it to the hot sauce to prevent curdling. Remove the pan from heat briefly before stirring it in.
This dish reheats well. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of broth or milk if the sauce thickens too much.
For a lighter version, use lean ground beef and low-fat sour cream.
