Ingredients

12 oz bowtie pasta

1 lb ground beef

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon 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 bowtie pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

Brown the Beef: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon, approximately 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.

Add Garlic: To the skillet with the browned beef, add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.

Create the Sauce: Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream. Stir until combined, then sprinkle in the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Gradually mix in the Parmesan cheese until the sauce becomes creamy and smooth.

Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add the drained bowtie pasta to the skillet and gently toss everything together until the pasta is well-coated with the creamy sauce.

Serve: Allow the dish to simmer for 2-3 minutes to warm through. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Garnish and Enjoy: Serve the creamy garlic Parmesan bowtie pasta in bowls, garnished with freshly chopped parsley on top.
