Description

This easy beef and noodles recipe combines tender egg noodles with a savory ground beef gravy flavored with onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and Italian seasoning. A hearty and comforting dish, perfect for a quick weeknight dinner with minimal ingredients and effort.


Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups uncooked egg noodles
  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2–3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • Salt & pepper, to taste


Instructions

  1. Cook the egg noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to the package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. Brown the ground beef and onions: While the noodles cook, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and chopped onion, breaking up the meat with a spoon. Cook until the beef is nicely browned, about 10 minutes. Drain some fat if using lean beef, but leave a couple tablespoons in the pan for flavor.
  3. Add garlic and seasonings: Reduce heat to medium. Stir in minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and Italian seasoning. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to release the flavors.
  4. Make the gravy base: Sprinkle the flour over the beef mixture and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring often to remove raw flour taste and create a roux.
  5. Incorporate beef broth: Gradually pour in beef broth while stirring to dissolve the flour completely. Scrape the bottom of the pan to loosen browned bits for extra flavor.
  6. Simmer to thicken: Cook the gravy over medium heat for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened to desired consistency. Add more beef broth if too thick.
  7. Combine noodles and beef gravy: Add drained egg noodles to the skillet and toss gently to coat noodles evenly with beef gravy.
  8. Season and serve: Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed. Serve immediately while hot.

Notes

  • Use lean ground beef to reduce excess fat but keep some fat in the pan for flavor.
  • You can substitute egg noodles with any wide pasta of choice if preferred.
  • Adjust gravy thickness by adding more or less beef broth.
  • For richer flavor, add a splash of red wine when adding Worcestershire sauce.
  • This dish reheats well and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
