Pasta with Beef and Onions

Pasta with Beef and Onions is a hearty and comforting dish that brings together tender beef, caramelized onions, and perfectly cooked pasta in a savory sauce. This kosher American dish is easy to prepare and packed with flavor, making it a perfect weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

• Pasta (e.g., fettuccine) - 200 grams
• Beef (ground or diced) - 250 grams
• Onion (medium-sized) - 1, thinly sliced
• Garlic (cloves) - 2, minced
• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Soy sauce (kosher) - 2 tablespoons
• Beef broth - 120 milliliters
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Salt - to taste
• Parsley (fresh, chopped) - 2 tablespoons for garnish

Steps

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook until they begin to caramelize, about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
4. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the beef, cooking until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Break it apart with a spatula as it cooks.
5. Pour in the beef broth and soy sauce, stirring to combine. Season with black pepper and salt to taste. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
6. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing to combine with the beef and onion mixture. Keep on heat for another 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.
7. Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.
