Description

This Creamy Parmesan Garlic Beef Bowtie Pasta is a quick and easy dinner perfect for busy families. Ground beef is seasoned and cooked with garlic and Italian herbs, then simmered with beef broth and bowtie pasta until tender. Finished with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of parsley, this dish is rich, comforting, and ready in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

Meat and Seasonings

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder

Liquids and Pasta

  • 3 cups beef broth
  • 8 oz bowtie pasta (uncooked)

Cheese and Garnish

  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Brown the Ground Beef: Heat a deep sauté skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon until browned and no longer pink.
  2. Add Seasonings: Stir in Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and onion powder to evenly coat the beef. Cook for an additional minute to toast the spices.
  3. Drain Excess Grease: If the skillet has excess grease, carefully drain it off to prevent a greasy final dish.
  4. Add Beef Broth and Pasta: Pour in the beef broth and add the uncooked bowtie pasta. Ensure the noodles are fully submerged in the liquid.
  5. Simmer Pasta: Cover the skillet with a lid and let the mixture cook on medium-low heat for about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the noodles are tender and have absorbed most of the broth.
  6. Incorporate Parmesan Cheese: Remove the lid and stir in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy, coating the pasta and beef evenly.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped parsley on top if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy your creamy, garlicky beef bowtie pasta!

Notes

  • Make sure the pasta is fully covered with broth to ensure even cooking. Add a bit more broth if needed during cooking.
  • You can swap ground beef for ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option.
  • Adjust garlic and seasoning amounts to taste for a more or less intense flavor.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for best melting and flavor.
  • Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for 2-3 days and reheat nicely on the stovetop or microwave.
