Ingredients

  • 8 oz. (227 g) dry penne pasta
  • 1 tbsp. (15 ml) olive oil
  • 1 lb. (454 g) boneless beef, cubed
  • 1 tsp (5 ml). Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp (3 ml). kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp (3 ml). black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp (3 ml). paprika
  • 1/4 tsp (1 ml). garlic powder
  • 2 tbsps. (30 ml) vegetable oil
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup (240 ml) chicken broth
  • 1 cup (240 ml) coconut cream, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (50 g) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsps. (30 ml) chopped parsley


Instructions

  1. Prepare the penne by following the instructions on the packaging. As it cooks, begin the preparation for the remaining steps.
  2. In a large pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is sufficiently heated, approximately 2–3 minutes, introduce the cubed beef.
  3. Season the beef with the Italian seasoning, kosher salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
  4. Allow the beef to cook for about 7 minutes, or until no longer pink and juices are clear.
  5. Incorporate the vegetable oil and minced garlic into the pan. Sauté for around 1 minute.
  6. Add chicken broth to the pan, making sure to deglaze by scraping up any bits stuck to the bottom. Allow it to come to a simmer.
  7. Combine the cooked pasta with the contents of the skillet, ensuring it is well-mixed.
  8. Mix in the coconut cream and shredded cheddar cheese, stirring until the beef and pasta are evenly coated and the sauce becomes thick.
  9. Finally, garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Consider using bone-in chicken for a richer flavor profile.
  • Enhance the sauce’s creaminess by adding a splash of heavy cream or Greek yogurt.
  • Experiment with different cheeses like Parmesan or mozzarella for a unique twist.
