Skillet Beef And Gluten Free Noodles (Fast And Easy Meal)

Skillet beef and gluten free noodles only takes twenty minutes to make. You’ll love this easy meal.

Indeed, skillet beef and gluten free noodles is an instant favorite with kids (and grownups will love it too).

It works best with elbow pasta. I recommend SamMills Gluten Free corn pasta, as it maintains its texture and tastes almost like wheat pasta.

Got 20 minutes? Let’s make skillet beef and gluten free noodles.

Instructions

*Free printable recipe card is available at the end of the post. 

Season beef with minced onion and salt and brown in a skillet. Then drain the fat.

Stir gluten free gravy mix and bouillon cubes in three cups of cold water; then add to the same skillet. Continuously stir over medium-high heat to thicken the gravy (the bouillon will not dissolve completely until it’s hot).

Meanwhile, prepare your pasta a la dente according to package directions.

Finally combine the noodles with your cooked meat and heat through while the elbows absorb the gravy. And that’s it. An easy delicious meal.

Pro tips and recipe notes

• I use a combination of gravy mix and bouillon cubes for the gravy in this recipe. If you don’t have a gravy packet, you can whisk together 3 tablespoons of butter and 3 tablespoons of flour in the pan over a low heat. Continue to stir and slowly cook the flour mixture (roux) over a low heat for about 2-3 minutes. Then add 3 cups of gluten free broth. Whisk and simmer so that the gravy stays smooth while it thickens.
  Season with a teaspoon of salt and a dash of pepper to taste. Then add the cooked meat back in.
• If beef isn’t your thing, you can substitute ground turkey, ground chicken, ground pork, ground sausage, or ground lamb.

For a healthy twist, you can serve on a bed of lettuce.

This meal is so good, it has a nickname. We’ve dubbed this recipe “elbows & meat.” Bon appetit!
