Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz Gluten-free spaghetti
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 lb Ground beef or turkey
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 28 oz Canned crushed tomatoes
- 2 tbsp Tomato paste
- 1 tsp Dried basil
- 1 tsp Dried oregano
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gluten-free spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta and set aside.
While the pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the ground meat to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Lower the heat to a simmer and let the sauce cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Once the sauce is ready, add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet. Toss well to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce.
Serve hot and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh basil, if using.
