📝 Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp Italian seasoning
3 tbsp butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups beef broth
8 oz bowtie pasta (farfalle)
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Brown the Beef
In a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess grease if needed. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and Italian seasoning. Cook for 1–2 more minutes to let the flavors blend.
2️⃣ Sauté Garlic
Push the beef to one side and melt the butter in the empty space. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Mix everything together.
3️⃣ Add Broth & Pasta
Pour in the beef broth and bring to a boil. Stir in the bowtie pasta, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for about 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender and liquid is mostly absorbed.
4️⃣ Make It Creamy
Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Simmer for another 3–5 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the pasta. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5️⃣ Garnish & Serve
Remove from heat. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley (optional) and serve immediately while hot and creamy!
🍴 Serving Suggestions
Pair with a fresh green salad or roasted vegetables.
Add red pepper flakes for a spicy twist.
Swap ground beef for ground turkey or sausage for variation.
❄️ Storage & Reheating
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Reheat gently on the stove with a splash of cream or broth to loosen the sauce.
