Step 1

Cook the bowtie pasta in salted boiling water until al dente. Save 1/4 cup pasta water, then drain.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and onion, then cook until the beef is deeply browned and the onion is softened. Drain excess grease if needed.

Step 3

Add the butter, garlic, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Pour in the heavy cream and milk, then stir in the cream cheese until smooth. Add 1 cup mozzarella and the Parmesan, stirring over low heat until the sauce is thick, creamy, and glossy.

Step 5

Add the cooked bowtie pasta and toss until fully coated. Stir in a splash of reserved pasta water only if needed. Let it cook for 1 more minute so the sauce settles into the pasta.

Step 6

Spoon into bowls and top with the remaining mozzarella. Let it melt over the hot pasta, then finish with parsley and extra Parmesan before serving.
