Steps
In a large skillet, heat the extra virgin olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté for one minute, being careful not to burn it.
Add the frozen mushrooms directly to the skillet. Cook the mushrooms over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until all the liquid released by the mushrooms has evaporated and the mushrooms are well cooked.
Next, add the ground meat and cook it over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until it is completely browned and cooked through.
Season with salt, pepper, and parsley to taste.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving some cooking water.
Add the drained pasta directly to the skillet with the mushroom and meat sauce. Toss well to combine the pasta with the sauce, adding some cooking water if necessary to achieve a creamier consistency.
Enjoy your meal!
Tips
If you want to make this dish even richer, you can add 200 ml of heavy cream and a pinch of nutmeg at the end of cooking the mushroom and meat sauce. Super creamy and delicious!
