Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef (80/20)
- 1 box (12-16 ounces) gluten-free pasta
- 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 cups low-sodium beef broth
- 1 cup milk or cream
- 2 tablespoons gluten-free flour or cornstarch
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: diced tomatoes, green bell pepper, or mushrooms
- Optional: fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Instructions
- In a large skillet or Dutch oven, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
- Stir in the beef broth, milk (or cream), paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour (or cornstarch) with 1/4 cup of cold water until smooth. Pour the slurry into the skillet and stir until the sauce begins to thicken.
- Add the gluten-free pasta to the skillet. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until the pasta is tender, about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Remove from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and smooth.
- Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley, if desired.
