  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 8 ounces spaghetti or fettuccine
– 1 pound ground beef
– 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (or oregano)
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating Beef and Garlic Butter Pasta is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a cup of pasta water.

2. Brown the Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.

3. Sauté Garlic: Push the beef to one side of the skillet. Add the butter and minced garlic to the empty side. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.

4. Combine Ingredients: Stir the cooked beef and garlic together. Add the dried Italian herbs, mixing them in thoroughly.

5. Add Pasta: Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss to combine with the beef and garlic butter mixture.

6. Adjust Consistency: Pour in a little bit of reserved pasta water, stirring until the pasta is nicely coated and the sauce is smooth. Adjust salt and pepper if necessary.

7. Serve: Once everything is heated through, remove from heat. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese on top and garnish with chopped parsley.

8. Enjoy: Plate the pasta and relish in the wonderful aroma and flavors!
