A comforting one-pot pasta dish featuring ground beef, garlic, and a creamy sauce for a quick weeknight meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lb (450g) ground beef
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 2 cups milk (or heavy cream)
  • 12 oz (340g) pasta (penne, rotini, or fettuccine)
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large deep skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add ground beef and cook for 5-6 minutes, breaking it up until browned.
  3. Stir in minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 1 minute.
  4. Pour in beef broth and milk. Stir until combined.
  5. Add pasta and Italian seasoning, ensuring it’s mostly submerged. Bring to a simmer.
  6. Cover and cook for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally until pasta is tender.
  7. Reduce heat to low and stir in parmesan cheese and butter until melted and creamy.

Notes

For extra creaminess, use heavy cream instead of milk. Stir occasionally to prevent the pasta from sticking.
