Cooking Steps
- Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the penne pasta and cook according to package instructions for about 9-11 minutes, or until al dente. Once done, drain the pasta in a colander and set it aside.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the lean ground beef and cook for 6-8 minutes until it's browned and no longer pink, using a spatula to break it apart.
- Stir in the chopped onion into the skillet with the beef, cooking for 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent and fragrant. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 30 seconds.
- Pour the canned diced tomatoes and beef broth into the skillet, and season with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together and allow the mixture to simmer for 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and gently stir in the Greek yogurt and grated Parmesan cheese until combined and smooth.
- Add the drained penne pasta to the skillet and toss everything together until the pasta is well-coated in the creamy sauce.
- Plate the pasta in bowls and garnish with freshly chopped basil or parsley. Serve hot.
