Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp Olive oil Extra virgin
  • 1 medium Yellow onion Diced

  • 1 tbsp Sweet paprika

  • Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat.
  • Add the diced onion and sauté for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 additional minute.
  • Add the ground beef to the pot. Cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and completely cooked through. Drain any excess fat.
  • Stir in the tomato paste and sweet paprika, cooking for 2 minutes to lightly toast the spices.

  • Stir in the uncooked elbow macaroni. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until the pasta is tender.
  • Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the sour cream and fresh chopped parsley, then serve immediately.
