Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups bowtie pasta (farfalle)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese of choice)
  • 1 tsp paprika (optional, for added flavor)

Instructions

  • Cook Ground Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef with diced onion and minced garlic until the beef is browned and the onions are soft. Drain any excess fat. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika (if using).
  • Add Broth and Pasta: Pour in the beef broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Add bowtie pasta to the skillet and bring to a simmer.
  • Cook Pasta: Cover and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente and most of the liquid is absorbed.
  • Add Cheese: Reduce heat to low, stir in the shredded cheese, and mix until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  • Serve: Serve hot, garnished with extra cheese or fresh parsley if desired. Enjoy this creamy, comforting dish!

Notes

  • You can substitute the cheddar cheese with any cheese you prefer, such as mozzarella or parmesan.
  • For extra flavor, you can add crushed red pepper flakes or fresh herbs such as basil or parsley.
