How to Make Anthony's Favorite Stuffed Shells
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Cook jumbo pasta shells according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- While shells are cooking, prepare the meat sauce: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add onion and garlic to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a medium bowl, combine ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, egg, and parsley. Mix well.
- Spread a thin layer of meat sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Fill each cooked pasta shell with the ricotta mixture and arrange them in the baking dish.
- Pour the remaining meat sauce over the stuffed shells.
- Sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the sauce is heated through.
- Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
