• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 1 cup Beef broth
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried basil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the low-carb pasta according to package instructions and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the tomato paste, beef broth, heavy cream, oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 6

Add the rinsed and drained low-carb pasta to the skillet, tossing it gently to coat in the sauce.

Step 7

Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, ensuring it's evenly distributed throughout the dish.

Step 8

Adjust seasoning if needed and continue to cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, allowing the pasta to absorb the sauce and heat through.

Step 9

Remove from heat and top with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot and enjoy your Keto Pasta with Ground Beef immediately.
