Follow The Directions

01

Step

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook bow tie pasta at a boil, stirring occasionally, until just tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain thoroughly.

02

Step

Add the ground beef and onion to the same pot, lower the heat to medium, and cook and stir until beef is browned and crumbly, breaking up chunks with a spatula, about 7 minutes. Drain grease.

03

Step

Stir sauce packet, water, and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce together in a small bowl. Add sauce mixture to the pot. Stir until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.

04

Step

Add garlic powder, pepper, and cream of mushroom soup to beef mixture and stir well; stir in sour cream. Remove from heat.

05

Step

Taste; add remaining 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce if needed. Fold in pasta and stir gently to combine. Garnish with parsley.

For a richer flavor, consider using a higher fat content ground beef.
Add a splash of dry sherry or white wine to the sauce for an extra layer of complexity.
If you don't have cream of mushroom soup on hand, you can substitute with cream of celery or cream of chicken soup.
To make this dish even more vibrant, add some sauteed mushrooms or bell peppers to the beef mixture.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
