Prep

  1. 01

    Dice 1 yellow onion.

  2. 02

    Mince 4 cloves garlic.

  3. 03

    Chop a small handful of fresh parsley for garnish.

Method

  1. 01

    Bring a large pot of salted water to boil and cook the egg noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

  2. 02

    While water heats, melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart as it browns, until no pink remains, about 5–7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a plate.

  3. 03

    In the same skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and golden, about 4 minutes.

  4. 04

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

  5. 05

    Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, stirring to combine. Return the cooked beef to the skillet and simmer for 2 minutes.

  6. 06

    Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss gently until coated and heated through, about 1–2 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

  7. 07

    Divide into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley.

Spice Tips

For deeper savory notes, add 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder or smoked paprika when you return the beef to the pan. If you like heat, a pinch of cayenne or freshly cracked black pepper works well. A splash of hot sauce at the table lets everyone adjust to taste.
