Lazy Night Skillet Beef and Pasta

Lazy Night Skillet Beef and Pasta

2 TBS extra virgin olive oil
2 cups cooked beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped bell pepper, any color
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 basil leaves, chopped or 1 tsp. dried basil
1 28 oz. can San Marzano tomatoes, rough chopped, with the juice
1 cup beef stock
1/2 lb. Orecchiette pasta, cooked and drained

Add the olive oil to your skillet heat over medium high setting. Add the onion, celery, and bell pepper and cook until almost tender, add the garlic and basil and cook another minute or so. Add the beef and cook until heated through, another 10 minutes. Pour in the beef stock, chop up your canned tomatoes and add along with the tomato juice from the can into the skillet. Stir to combine and add the pasta. This will be a little saucy, just let it cook a little while longer and some of the juice will be absorbed into the pasta. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to desired seasoning and enjoy!
