Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 12 ounces dry pasta (penne, rotini, or similar)
- 28 ounces canned crushed tomatoes
- 3 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large, deep skillet or pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add ground beef to the pot and cook for 6-8 minutes, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Stir in the Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and black pepper to evenly coat the beef mixture.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes and beef broth, stirring well to combine.
Add the dry pasta to the pot, ensuring it is submerged in the liquid. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is cooked al dente and has absorbed most of the liquid.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, if desired.
