Cooking Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook rigatoni according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • Season beef pieces with salt and pepper. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil and sear beef on all sides until browned (about 5-6 minutes). Remove from skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant.
  • Pour in beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning. Simmer for 5 minutes, until the sauce starts to thicken.
  • Return beef to the skillet, add the cooked rigatoni, and toss everything together in the creamy sauce. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes to meld flavors.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and additional Parmesan, if desired. Serve hot.
