Why You’ll Love It?
This recipe is not only delicious, but it's also:
Quick to make – ready in under 30 minutes.
Budget-friendly, using simple ingredients.
Comforting and creamy, with just the right touch of herbs and cheese.
Ingredients You'll Need:
1 tbsp vegetable oil
400 g low-fat minced beef
20 g crushed garlic
250 ml water
Chicken stock – as required
250 g boiled linguini pasta
150 ml cream
50 g grated cheese (cheddar or mozzarella work well)
5 g chopped parsley
25 g parmesan cheese (optional, for garnish)
Method:
1. Cook the beef:
In a large saucepan, heat the vegetable oil. Add the minced beef and sauté until browned and fully cooked. Toss in the onions and continue cooking until they’re soft and golden.
2. Simmer with flavor:
Add the crushed garlic, water, and a splash of chicken stock (as needed for flavor). Reduce heat and let it simmer gently for 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.
3. Combine with pasta:
While the sauce simmers, cook your linguini in boiling water until al dente. Drain and add it straight to the beef mixture. Toss everything together so the pasta is well coated.
4. Add the creaminess:
Pour in the cream, sprinkle in the grated cheese and chopped parsley, and stir everything together over medium heat until the cheese melts into a luscious sauce.
5. Serve it up:
Plate the pasta and, if you’d like, top it off with a sprinkle of parmesan for an extra cheesy finish.
Tips & Variations:
Want a bit of a kick? Add a pinch of chili flakes while simmering the beef.
Swap linguini with fettuccine or penne if that’s what you have on hand.
For a richer sauce, use full-fat cream and a blend of cheeses.
Creamy Beef Linguini is one of those dishes that feels like a warm hug. It’s simple, satisfying, and perfect for any pasta lover looking to try something a little indulgent. Pair it with a side of garlic bread and a fresh green salad, and you’ve got yourself a meal to remember.
