Creating this delightful Creamy Parmesan Beef Linguine is straightforward when you follow these steps:

1. Cook the Pasta: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the rest and set the pasta aside.

2. Brown the Beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.

3. Add Garlic: Once the beef is cooked, add the minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.

4. Make the Sauce: Lower the heat and add the unsalted butter to the skillet. Once melted, stir in the heavy cream. Allow it to simmer for about 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.

5. Incorporate Cheese: Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce, stirring constantly until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy. If the sauce is too thick, add reserved pasta water, a spoonful at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

6. Combine: Add the cooked linguine to the skillet with the creamy sauce, tossing to ensure the pasta is well coated. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning to taste.

7. Serve: Once well mixed and heated through, remove from heat. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
