Pasta Shells With Ground Beef Recipe

  1. Brown the Ground Beef: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef with chopped garlic, black pepper, and Sazon Perfecta seasoning until fully cooked and browned. Drain any excess grease and set aside.
  2. Brown the Pasta Shells: In the same skillet, heat 1/4 cup of oil and brown the pasta shells until lightly toasted, similar to how you would prepare rice for Rice-A-Roni. This adds a nutty flavor and enhances the texture of the pasta.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Once the pasta shells are browned, add the cooked ground beef back into the skillet. Pour in 4 cups of water, granulated Knorr chicken bouillon, diced serrano chiles, granulated Knorr tomato bouillon, half of the chopped onion, Rotel (diced tomatoes with green chilies), chopped cilantro, red Sazon seasoning, bay leaf, and adjust with garlic powder and onion powder according to your taste preferences.
  4. Cooking Process: Stir all ingredients together and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and simmer until the pasta shells are cooked al dente and have absorbed most of the liquid, stirring occasionally. This typically takes about 10-12 minutes.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Once the pasta shells are tender and cooked to your liking, remove the bay leaf and serve the dish immediately. Garnish with additional chopped cilantro or grated cheese if desired. Enjoy your flavorful pasta shells with ground beef straight from the skillet!
