Ingredients
  

Pasta and Sauce Ingredients
  • 12 oz fettuccine
  • 1 lb halal ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 26 oz marinara sauce
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • Parmesan cheese for serving
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the halal ground beef to the pot. Cook until brown, breaking it up with a spatula as you go, which should take about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Cooking
  1. Pour in the marinara sauce and beef broth, then stir well to combine.
  2. Add the fettuccine, gently pushing it down into the liquid. Bring everything to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
  3. Let it simmer for about 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure the pasta cooks evenly.
  4. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serving
  1. Spoon your creamy, saucy fettuccine into bowls, sprinkle with fresh Parmesan cheese, and garnish with basil.

Notes

For a lighter option, substitute the halal ground beef with lean turkey or a plant-based alternative. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days or freeze for up to three months. Reheat on low heat with a splash of beef broth.
