My easy American Goulash recipe will be a hit with the whole family! This one pot dish is made with fridge and pantry staples and it comes together in just 30 minutes.
Heat a large skillet with high sides or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add beef, shallot or onion, and garlic then break beef up as it cooks. Season with worcestershire sauce, a dash of homemade seasoned salt, and pepper, then brown. Drain if necesary then return beef mixture to the skillet.
Add remaining teaspoon seasoned salt, broth, tomato products, Italian seasoning, and bay leaf then turn heat up to bring liquid to a simmer. Turn heat down to medium/medium-low then simmer gently for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add elbow noodles then continue to simmer, stirring often, until noodles are tender, 12-14 minutes, turning the heat down slightly near the end to maintain a very gentle simmer. Remove bay leaf then taste and add additional seasoned salt and/or pepper if desired. Serve.
