Directions
Step 1 -In a large pot of salted, boiling water, cook the egg noodles, according to the package directions. Drain the noodles well and cover to keep warm.
Step 2 -While the noodles are cooking, in a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the vegetable oil until it is sizzling hot, about 1 minute.

Step 10 -Reduced the heat to medium. Add the cooked flank steak strips to the sauce and season with the salt and the black pepper.
Step 11 -Simmer the stroganoff, stirring constantly, until the meat is heated through and the sauce thickens to the desired consistency, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 12 -Plate the stroganoff over the cooked noodles.
Step 13 -Serve the stroganoff garnished with the parsley.
