One-Pot Creamy Beef & Garlic Butter Pasta Directions:
-
In a large pot or deep skillet, cook the lean ground beef over medium-high heat until browned. Drain any excess fat, leaving a little for flavor.
-
Add light butter, garlic, and diced onion. Sauté for 2–3 minutes until fragrant and softened.
-
Sprinkle in Italian seasoning and optional red pepper flakes, stirring well.
-
Pour in beef broth and almond milk-cornstarch mixture, stirring to combine.
-
Add uncooked pasta, ensuring it's submerged.
-
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer for 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally until pasta is al dente and sauce has thickened.
-
Remove from heat and stir in reduced-fat Parmesan cheese until creamy.
-
Adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper as needed.
-
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.
