Brown your beef with garlic and onion in olive oil. Toss in the mushrooms next. Add the broth, seasoning, and wine to deglaze. Finally, lower the heat and gently stir in the cream.

Toss the sauce with the pasta. Mix in Parmesan cheese, and if it's too thick, pour in pasta water a bit at a time. Season well and finish it off with parsley on top.
# Additional Tips:

Don’t keep the heat high when adding cream.

No wine? No problem, use extra broth.

You can use ground turkey if you prefer it over beef.
