One Pan Beef & Mac Skillet

Created by KittenCal on November 23, 2019

Ground pepper (to taste)
2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream (or to taste)
Seasoned salt (added towards to end of cooking - or white salt)
3 1/2 cups beef broth
3/4 cups grated cheddar cheese (divided - or to taste -- or you can omit the cheese on top and use grated Parmesan cheese)
112 grams dry macaroni pasta (1 cup dry)

Step 1: In a large non-stick skillet with high sides, add in ground beef. With a spoon separate the beef in larger size chunks. Add in a tablespoon of butter (or you could omit the butter). Cook and brown the beef chunks very well (about 12 minutes). Add in mustard and ketchup (start with 1/2 cup ketchup) and all spices; continue to cook stirring a few minutes more.
Step 2: Add in cream and beef broth; bring to a simmer stirring.
Step 3: Mix in the dry macaroni. Bring back to a simmer. Cover and lightly simmer 20 minutes (adding in more ketchup if desired).
Step 4: Remove cover and simmer uncovered until pasta is cooked to your liking, seasoning with salt towards the end of cooking time.
Step 5: Mix in 1/4 cup of cheese until combined. Sprinkle top with more cheese. Serve.
NOTE: if you are serving kids you may want to increase the ketchup for a sweeter taste or add in some brown sugar
