Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound ground beef
1 medium yellow onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 (14.5 ounces) can diced tomatoes
4 cups beef broth
8 ounces uncooked penne pasta
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large pot or deep skillet over medium-high heat.
Add ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Add diced onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
Stir in minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, crushed red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper; cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in diced tomatoes with their juice and beef broth, stirring to combine.
Add uncooked penne pasta and bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 15-18 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
Remove from heat and stir in grated Parmesan cheese until melted and well combined.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
