Ground Sirloin Pasta
Ingredients:
– 1 lb ground sirloin
– 1 onion, diced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes
– 1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
– 1 tsp dried oregano
– 1 tsp dried basil
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 lb pasta of your choice
– Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving
– Fresh basil leaves, for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sirloin until browned, breaking it up into crumbles with a spoon as it cooks.
2. Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the ground sirloin. Cook until the onion is softened and the garlic is fragrant, about 5 minutes.
3. Stir in the diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. While the meat sauce is simmering, cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
5. Once the meat sauce is ready and the pasta is cooked, combine the two in a large pot or mixing bowl. Gently toss the pasta with the sauce until it is well coated.
6. Serve the Ground Sirloin Pasta hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil leaves if desired. This dish pairs perfectly with a side of garlic bread and a crisp green salad.
