Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 cups low-sodium beef broth
  • 8 ounces uncooked pasta (such as penne, rotini, or farfalle)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
  • Salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, about 8-10 minutes.
  2. Add the minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, and black pepper. Cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the beef broth and bring to a simmer.
  4. Add the uncooked pasta to the pot. Stir to ensure the pasta is submerged in the liquid.
  5. Cover the pot and cook according to pasta package directions, or until the pasta is al dente, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, about 10-12 minutes.
  6. Once the pasta is cooked, stir in the grated Parmesan cheese.
  7. Taste and season with salt and additional black pepper if needed.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley and extra Parmesan cheese.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can use a combination of beef and chicken broth.
  • If you prefer a creamier sauce, stir in a tablespoon of butter or a splash of heavy cream at the end.
  • Feel free to add a bay leaf while the broth simmers for an extra layer of flavor.
