Honey Sriracha Spaghetti Recipe: A Delicious Twist to Your Classic Pasta Dish

Hello there, fellow foodies! Today, I'm thrilled to share my take on a timeless favorite: spaghetti and meatballs. It's a go-to comfort meal, quick to whip up and endlessly satisfying. But guess what? I've got a sweet and spicy twist that'll take your taste buds on a flavorful adventure!

What's my secret? A touch of honey and a hint of Sriracha in the sauce! Trust me, when those ingredients simmer together, it's pure magic!

Let's dive right into my recipe for Honey Sriracha Spaghetti🍝:

Ingredients:

• 1 pound ground beef (or turkey/chicken)

• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs

• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

• 1 egg

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• Salt and pepper to taste

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• 1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes

• 2 tablespoons tomato paste

• 1 teaspoon sugar

• 1 teaspoon dried oregano

• 1 teaspoon dried basil

• 1 ounce honey

• 3 drops (or more to taste) Sriracha sauce

• 1 pound spaghetti noodles

Instructions:

1. Prepare Meatballs: In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Shape into meatballs (approximately 1 inch in diameter). You could do all that, or buy them premade like I do. # AintNobodyGotTimeForThat

2. Cook Meatballs: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Brown meatballs on all sides, then set aside. You ever tried cooking them in an airfryer? L I S T E N! 375 for about 10 minutes to start

3. Create Sauce: In the same skillet (no, cause then you got the grease all up in your sauce! Rinse it off or use another one), combine crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, oregano, basil, and honey. Add Sriracha sauce little by little to taste. Simmer for at least 20 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.

4. Cook Spaghetti: Boil salted water (I add a few drops of olive oil to my water) and cook spaghetti according to package instructions. Drain.

5. Serve: Plate the cooked spaghetti and top it with the meatballs and sauce. (OR you can mix the spaghetti with the sauce and serve it like that) Optionally, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

6. Enjoy: Delight in this flavorful Spicy Honey Meatball Pasta that brings together sweet, spicy, and savory elements in a satisfying dish! Goes great with a side of garlice bread😋
