Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb beef chuck, cut into 1-inch pieces
kosher salt
black pepper
1 large onion, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
4 garlic cloves, smashed
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 cups low sodium chicken broth
1 (15 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 lb assorted mushroom, sliced (button, cremini, shitake)
12 ounces pappardelle pasta or 12 ounces fettuccine pasta
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the beef with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in the saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrots, garlic, rosemary, and 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 6-8 minutes. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until slightly darkened, about 1 minute more.
Return the beef to the saucepan and add the chicken broth and tomatoes. Simmer, covered, stirring occasionally until the beef is fork-tender, 60-75 minutes.
Add the mushrooms to the saucepan and cook, covered, stirring occasionally until tender, 10-12 minutes more. If sauce is too thin, simmer, uncovered, until thickened to the desired consistency.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to the package directions; drain and return it to the pot. Add the beef ragu and Parmesan and toss. Serve with additional Parmesan.

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 Italian red cherry peppers or 2 large Fresno chile peppers
1 large or 2 medium red bell peppers
1/4 cup EVOO
1/4 pound pancetta or guanciale, chopped into batons
4 to 5 portobello mushroom caps, gills scraped, sliced
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
2 tablespoons thinly sliced fresh sage
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme
1/2 tablespoon fresh marjoram or oregano, or 1 teaspoon dried
4 large cloves garlic, sliced
1 large or 2 medium onions, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 1/2 cups dry red wine
One 32-ounce can whole D.O.P. San Marzano tomatoes
1 pound pappardelle
Pecorino cheese, grated, for serving

Steps:

Preheat the broiler and char the red cherry and bell peppers until evenly blackened. Place in a bowl and cover to cool. Peel and seed the peppers. Finely dice the red cherry peppers, and then chop the red bell peppers into 1/4-inch dice.
Meanwhile, heat the EVOO in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add the pancetta to render, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and cook until dark and tender, 12 to 15 minutes.
Add the rosemary, sage, thyme, marjoram, garlic, onions and some salt and black pepper and cook 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and roasted peppers. Deglaze with the wine and cook until reduced by half, scraping reducing up the bits on the bottom of the pan, about 2 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down, 30 minutes.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pappardelle to al dente. Reserve 1 cup of the starchy cooking water before draining, and tossing the pasta with the sauce and the cooking water 1 minute. To serve, combine the pasta with lots of grated pecorino, passing more at the table, for topping.
