Ingredients
  

1 lb ground beef

12 oz rotini pasta

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup chicken broth

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the rotini pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Brown the Beef: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks (about 5-7 minutes). Drain excess fat if necessary.

      Sauté the Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the beef and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

        Create the Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth. Stir well to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer.

          Add the Cheese: Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Let the sauce simmer for another 3-4 minutes, allowing it to thicken. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

            Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add the cooked rotini into the skillet with the beef and garlic Parmesan sauce. Toss gently until the pasta is well coated. Let it cook together for 1-2 minutes to heat through.

              Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately for best flavor!
