Satisfy your burger cravings with this jalapeño cheeseburger pasta. This is a one-pan pasta recipe that includes jalapeños, ground beef, onion, garlic, and cheese.
Add beef, onion, jalapeños, garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika to the pan. Break apart the ground beef. Cook until the beef is done and the onions are translucent, about 5 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add the can of tomatoes (including the liquid) and pasta to the pan, and stir. Add water until it barely covers everything in the pan, about 2 cups. Let it simmer over medium heat until the pasta is cooked, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Turn the heat down to low. Add heavy whipping cream to the pan and mix well.
In a separate bowl, mix the two types of cheese together. Sprinkle them over the pan, distributing them evenly. Cover the pan with a lid and wait until the cheese melts, about 2 minutes.
Turn off the heat and uncover the pan. Garnish with parsley.

NOTES & TIPS
A really convenient aspect of this recipe is that everything is cooked in a single pan. You don’t need to boil the pasta in a separate pot; instead, the pasta cooks as it simmers in the tomato sauce along with all of the other ingredients. This makes for a much faster and streamlined cooking process, not to mention less cleanup as a result.
