    Ingredients

    • 1 pound ground beef

    • 12 ounces rotini pasta

    • 1/4 cup butter

    • 3 cloves garlic, minced

    • 1 cup heavy cream

    • 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

    • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

    • 1/2 teaspoon salt

    • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley

    Directions

    • Cook the rotini pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente; drain and set aside.
    • In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef until fully cooked. Drain any excess fat and set the beef aside.
    • In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about one minute.
    • Stir in the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce heat and stir in Parmesan cheese until the sauce thickens.
    • Season the sauce with black pepper and salt. Adjust the seasoning to taste for added flavor.
    • Combine the cooked pasta and beef with the garlic Parmesan sauce in the skillet, stirring well to coat evenly.
    • Garnish with chopped parsley before serving to add color and freshness to the dish.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
