• 1 tablespoon butter

• Optional: ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes

 Instructions

1. Cook the Pasta

Boil bowtie pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside, reserving ½ cup of pasta water.

2. Sauté the Beef Mixture

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned. Drain excess fat if needed.

Stir in chopped onion and garlic. Sauté until softened, about 3 minutes. Add Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix to combine.

3. Make the Cream Sauce

Add butter to the skillet and let it melt. Pour in the heavy cream and beef broth (or pasta water). Stir to combine and let simmer for 3–4 minutes until slightly thickened.

Add grated parmesan cheese and stir until fully melted and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.

4. Combine Pasta & Sauce

Add the cooked bowtie pasta directly into the skillet. Toss everything together until evenly coated and creamy.

5. Serve

Plate the creamy pasta and top with extra parmesan, chopped parsley, or a sprinkle of chili flakes if desired.
