Ingredients

3 cups uncooked egg noodles
1 pound lean ground beef
1 medium onion diced
3 cloves garlic minced
¼ cup butter
1 teaspoon paprika
¼ cup flour
2 1/2 cups beef broth
1 beef bouillon cube
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon fresh thyme
1/2 cup heavy cream
Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

Cook egg noodles to al dente according to the pkg directions.
Heat a large skillet on medium high heat and add the ground beef, and onion and cook until browned. Add in the minced garlic and cook another 30 seconds until fragrant, then remove the beef to a plate.
Add in the butter and melt then add in the paprika, then whisk in the flour and cook 30 seconds.
Whisk in the beef stock, beef bouillon cube, Worcestershire sauce, and thyme, and simmer until thickened about 1-2 minutes. Reduce the heat and whisk in the heavy cream until combined.
Fold in the ground beef and cooked pasta until combined. Add salt and black pepper to taste.

Notes

This yields a fairly saucy pasta but a lot will soak into the noodles. If you prefer a dryer pasta add another cup of egg noodles.
