Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the gluten-free pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet or deep sautΓ© pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Push the onion and garlic to the side of the skillet and add the ground beef. Break up the meat using a wooden spoon and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess grease if necessary.
Stir in the chopped tomatoes, tomato paste, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, letting the flavors meld together.
Add the cooked gluten-free pasta to the skillet and stir to combine with the sauce.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the pasta mixture. Cover the skillet and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is fully melted.
Remove from heat, garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
