Step-by-Step Instructions
ReportCook the pasta
Cook the linguine in salted boiling water until al dente. Reserve 120ml pasta water, then drain.
Make the beef and sauce
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook for 6 to 8 minutes until browned. Drain excess grease if needed.
Add the butter and garlic to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the beef broth and heavy cream. Stir well and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes.
Add the cheddar, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes if using, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Combine and serve
Add the cooked linguine and toss until coated. Add a splash of pasta water if the sauce is too thick.
Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until everything is hot and creamy.
Garnish with parsley and serve warm.
