👩🍳 Instructions
1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook pasta until just al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water and drain the pasta.
2
While pasta cooks, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and let it sear without stirring for 2 minutes, then break up and brown for 6–8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
3
Push beef to the side, lower heat to medium, and add butter to the pan. Add onion and garlic and sauté until fragrant and translucent, about 1–2 minutes. Stir everything together.
4
Deglaze the pan with white wine or broth, scraping up brown bits, and simmer until reduced by half (about 2–3 minutes).
5
Reduce heat to medium-low; stir in cream, oregano, red pepper flakes, and lemon zest. Add drained pasta to the skillet with 1/2 cup reserved pasta water and toss to combine.
6
Remove from heat and stir in parmesan and lemon juice to taste. Add chopped parsley, adjust seasoning, and serve immediately with extra parmesan.
