Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 ounces spaghetti
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 4 slices cheddar cheese slices
- 0.33 cup ketchup
- 2 tablespoons mustard
- 0.25 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving 1/4 cup of pasta water.
In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well to combine.
Form the seasoned beef into four evenly-sized burger patties.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Cook the burger patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are browned and just cooked through.
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty, cover the skillet, and let the cheese melt. Once melted, transfer the cheese-covered patties to a plate and set aside.
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium, add butter, and sauté the finely diced onion until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in ketchup, mustard, and heavy cream to create a tangy and creamy sauce. Mix well and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of the reserved pasta water to loosen it.
To serve, divide the sauced spaghetti among four plates. Top each portion with a cheeseburger patty, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, and garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Spaghetti with Cheese Burgers Yummm!
