Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 packet taco seasoning mix
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 8 ounces egg noodles
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Break it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and aromatic.
Stir in the taco seasoning mix, salt, and black pepper. Combine thoroughly with the beef and vegetables.
Pour in the beef broth and tomato sauce, stirring well to combine.
Add the egg noodles into the skillet, making sure they are mostly submerged in the liquid.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Simmer for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender and the sauce has thickened.
Once the noodles are cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the sour cream and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese until well incorporated.
Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top. Cover the skillet and let it sit for 2-3 minutes to allow the cheese to melt.
Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro before serving.
Serve the Taco Noodle Dinner warm and enjoy!
