How to Make Beef Pasta With Tomato Spinach Sauce
- Prepare the beef: Cut 1 lb beef sirloin steak lengthwise in half, then crosswise into 1-inch wide strips.
- Marinate the beef: In a medium bowl, combine the beef strips, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Toss to coat and set aside.
- Cook the pasta: Cook 1 lb pasta according to package directions. Add 5 oz fresh spinach during the last minute of cooking. Drain well and set aside; do not rinse.
- Stir-fry the beef: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes, or until the outside is no longer pink. Remove from skillet with a slotted spoon and keep warm.
- Make the sauce: In the same skillet, add 1 (28 ounce) can of crushed tomatoes. Cook over medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly, stirring occasionally.
- Combine everything: Return the cooked beef to the skillet. Add the cooked pasta and spinach mixture. Heat through, mixing gently.
- Finish and serve: Stir in 3 tablespoons of the grated Parmesan cheese. Garnish with the remaining Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.
