CREAMY BEEF AND SHELLS



Creamy Beef and Shells image

This creamy and cheesy Beef and Shells pasta recipe is the ultimate family comfort food!

Provided by The Chunky Chef

Categories     Main Course

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 lb lean ground beef ((I normally use 93/7 for this recipe))
12 oz dried medium pasta shells
1 Tbsp olive oil
4 cloves garlic (minced)
1 small white or yellow onion (diced)
2 tsp dried Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes ((optional))
1 Tbsp all purpose flour
15 oz can tomato sauce
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 - 3 oz cream cheese (softened to room temperature)
1/4 cup sour cream
1 - 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Boil pasta to al dente, according to package directions. Drain and set aside. Toss with a little oil to prevent too much sticking.
  • Add oil to a large skillet and heat over MED HIGH heat until hot. Add beef, onion, and garlic and cook for 5-7 minutes, breaking up the meat as it cooks.
  • If lean beef was used, and there's not much grease in the skillet, you can just continue cooking to simmer that grease away. If there's a lot of grease, you'll want to drain it.
  • Add in Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and flour, stirring well to combine. Cook, stirring often, for 2 minutes.
  • Add tomato sauce and stir. Add heavy cream, cream cheese and sour cream and stir well. Simmer a few minutes, stirring often, to really incorporate the cream cheese into the sauce.
  • Add cheese and cooked pasta, stirring well to combine.
  • Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients beforehand: This recipe comes together quickly, so having all of your ingredients prepped and ready to go will make the cooking process much smoother.
  • Use a large skillet: A large skillet will give you plenty of room to cook all of the ingredients without overcrowding the pan.
  • Cook the beef in batches: If you're using a small skillet, you may need to cook the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Just be sure to drain the excess grease between batches.
  • Don't overcook the beef: The beef should be cooked through, but not overcooked. Overcooked beef will be tough and chewy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. You can use any vegetables you like, but some good options include broccoli, carrots, celery, zucchini, and mushrooms.
  • Season to taste: Don't be afraid to add more seasonings to the recipe to suit your taste. Some good options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and chili powder.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: This recipe is great served with rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes.
