Pasta pilaf with meat is an excellent alternative to classic pilaf. I used chicken instead of beef. Sliced ​​meat and vegetables. Quickly fried the onions and meat, then added the carrots. I made cuts on the tomatoes and poured boiling water over them, then peeled them off. Cut it into cubes and added it to the meat and vegetables. Added pasta and poured in hot water. Spices included: salt, pepper, Caucasian herbs, turmeric. I simmered everything under the lid for 20 minutes and a delicious lunch was ready! Everything is simple and fast.

I cooked pasta pilaf with meat in a frying pan. First of all, I fried garlic in vegetable oil, which I took instead of onions, then added meat to it (I had lean pork). After the pork was browned, I added carrots, then tomatoes. I simmered everything until the meat became soft (my husband and I like meat softer). After adding the pasta, I stirred the contents of the frying pan so that the juice released during frying would thoroughly coat the pasta (I added a little more garlic for flavor). I let them simmer in the juice for a couple of minutes, then poured hot water over everything, covering the pasta with it. Keep them covered until ready. I didn’t add any spices to the pilaf. It turned out very tasty! The pasta turned out juicy in a delicious sauce with tantalizing tomato sourness. The meat was not overcooked, it remained firm but soft. My husband and I really liked it! Thank you very much for the recipe!
