One-Pot Creamy Beef and Garlic Butter Pasta: A Flavorful Comfort Meal

In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the ground beef, breaking it apart as it cooks. Sauté until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the garlic and onion, cooking for another 2 minutes until fragrant and softened.

Step 2: Season and Simmer
Add the Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Pour in the beef broth and bring it to a simmer. Let it cook for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to develop.

Step 3: Make the Creamy Sauce
Reduce the heat and stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Mix well until the sauce thickens and becomes smooth, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 4: Cook the Pasta in One Pot
Add the uncooked pasta to the pot, ensuring it’s fully covered in the sauce. If needed, add extra water or broth. Cover the pot and let the pasta cook according to the package instructions, typically 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Once the pasta is tender and coated in the creamy garlic butter sauce, remove from heat. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately.
