Beef with Bow-Tie Pasta Recipe

Beef with Bow-Tie Pasta Recipe

  • 1 1/2 pounds beef boneless sirloin steak
  • 3 cups 2-inch pieces asparagus
  • 2 medium onions, sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups beef broth
  • 4 cups cooked farfalle (bow-tie) pasta
  • 1 cup tomato puree
  • 1 tablespoon dried basil leaves
  • 3 tablespoons chopped sun-dried tomatoes (not oil-packed)
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  1. Trim fat from beef. Cut beef with grain into 2-inch strips; cut strips across grain into 1/8-inch slices. (For easier cutting, partially freeze beef about 1 hour.)
  2. Spray 12-inch skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium heat. Cook asparagus, onions and 1 cup of the broth in skillet 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until liquid has evaporated; remove mixture from skillet.
  3. Add beef to skillet. Cook about 2 minutes over medium heat, stirring frequently, until beef is no longer pink.
  4. Return asparagus mixture to skillet. Stir in remaining broth and remaining ingredients except cheese. Cook about 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until mixture is hot. Sprinkle with cheese.
