Tips:

  • Choose the right pasta: Penne is a great choice for this recipe because it holds the sauce well. However, you can use any short pasta, such as rotini, fusilli, or rigatoni.
  • Cook the pasta al dente: This means that the pasta should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to it. This will help it hold its shape and texture in the sauce.
  • Use a good quality beef broth: The beef broth is a key ingredient in this recipe, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich, beefy flavor.
  • Brown the beef in batches: This will help to ensure that the beef is evenly cooked and doesn't get tough.
  • Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes: This will help to develop the flavor of the sauce and allow the beef to become tender.
  • Add the arugula at the end: Arugula is a delicate herb that will wilt quickly. Adding it at the end of the cooking process will help to preserve its flavor and texture.

Conclusion:

This penne with beef and arugula is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The beef is tender and flavorful, the sauce is rich and creamy, and the arugula adds a refreshing touch. Serve this dish with a side of crusty bread or a salad for a complete meal.
