Quick one-pot family dinner (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
1 pound lean ground beef
02 -
½ cup medium onion, diced
03 -
2 teaspoons minced garlic
04 -
Salt to taste
05 -
Pepper to taste
06 -
1 teaspoon paprika

1 cup heavy whipping cream

3 cups bowtie pasta (farfalle), dry measurement
10 -

11 -
Fresh parsley and more cheese for garnish (optional)
# Instructions:
01 -
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef with the diced onions and minced garlic over medium heat until no longer pink. Constantly stir to break up the beef into a crumble. Then, season with salt, pepper, and paprika.
02 -
Stir in the beef broth and heavy whipping cream, and add the bowtie pasta. Bring it to a boil and then lower the heat to a simmer.
03 -
Cover the skillet and simmer the pasta for 10-12 minutes until done, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, and until most of the liquid is absorbed.
04 -
Now, reduce the heat to low and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until just combined and serve warm. Optional: garnish with freshly chopped parsley and extra cheese. Enjoy!
