A hearty and indulgent dish featuring savory beef, creamy garlic butter sauce, and gooey melted cheese, perfect for cozy nights or casual gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 45 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Β½ cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 cups cooked pasta or rice
  • 2 tbsp parsley, finely chopped
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta or rice according to package instructions and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp of butter over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked (about 6-8 minutes). Season with salt and pepper, then set aside in a bowl.
  3. In the same skillet, add the remaining 3 tbsp of butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sautΓ© for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, keeping the heat on medium.
  4. Pour in the heavy cream and stir well. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Add the Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  5. Add the cooked ground beef back into the skillet, followed by the cooked pasta or rice. Mix everything together, ensuring each piece is coated in the creamy garlic butter sauce.
  6. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Cover the skillet for 2-3 minutes to allow the cheese to melt, or broil for 1-2 minutes for a bubbly, golden finish.
  7. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm.

Notes

[‘Don’t rush the garlic; keep the heat on medium and stir frequently to avoid burning.’, ‘Grate your own cheese for better melting and flavor.’, ‘Short pasta like penne or fusilli works best for holding the sauce.’, ‘For a low-carb version, use zucchini noodles or cauliflower rice.’, ‘Taste and adjust seasoning as you go to balance the flavors.’]
