Rigatoni Skillet Dinner

How to make Rigatoni Skillet Dinner Recipe - This is a no fuss dinner that will get you in and out of the kitchen in no time. I’ve developed a speedy meat sauce that is tossed with rigatoni and covered in mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses cooked right on the stovetop. The family will love this Italian-style pasta dish that is perfect with Cheesy Garlic Toast and a simple salad.

Ingredients:
8 ounces dry rigatoni
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup finely chopped white onion
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 pound lean ground beef
3⁄4 teaspoon kosher salt
1⁄4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1⁄4 teaspoon garlic salt
1⁄4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes
1⁄4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Method:
1. Cook the pasta according to the package directions, drain, and run under cold water to stop the cooking.

2. Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the beef, salt, pepper, garlic salt, and Italian seasoning and cook, stirring and breaking up the meat until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain the fat from pan if necessary. Add the tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, and cooked pasta and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to low, top with the mozzarella cheese, and cover with the lid to melt, about 5 minutes. Remove the lid and serve.
