Skillet Lasagna
Ingredients
  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 (28 ounce) jar spaghetti sauce
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons dried basil
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups dried mafalda noodles
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Instructions
1
Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat, allowing it to reach the optimal temperature. Sear and stir beef in the hot skillet until browned, developing a crumbly texture, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Remove excess fat from the skillet by draining and discarding it.
2
Introduce a medley of ingredients into the skillet, including spaghetti sauce, canned tomatoes, sautéed onion, minced garlic, dried basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook over low heat until the sauce reaches a hot state, taking around 15 minutes to achieve.
3
Simultaneously, fill a large pot with salted water and bring it to a vigorous boil. Cook mafalda noodles at the boiling point until they reach an optimal level of doneness, yet still retain a slight firmness to the bite, approximately 8 minutes. Drain excess water.
4
Combine cooked and drained mafalda noodles with the prepared sauce, stirring until they are fully coated. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the noodles.
5
Position an oven rack about 6 inches away from the heat source, and preheat the broiler to its highest setting.
6
Place the skillet under the hot broiler and cook until the cheese is golden and bubbly, taking 3 to 5 minutes to achieve the desired result.
