# Step-by-Step Directions:
01 -
Drop the ground chuck into the skillet and cook it till it loses all the pink. Get rid of any grease left behind after cooking.
02 -
Pour olive oil into a large skillet and warm it over medium. Toss in the chopped onions and peppers, sauté for 5–7 minutes. Toss in the garlic and let it cook until it smells amazing and barely browns.
03 -
Mix the garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, oregano, basil, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper into the browned meat. Add the crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, and tomato sauce. Stir everything together really well.
04 -
Set the heat to low and keep the sauce on a gentle simmer for an hour. Stir it once in a while so it doesn’t stick.
05 -
Take the cooked spaghetti, pour in the sauce, and mix them together until the sauce is evenly coating the noodles. Serve it warm.
06 -
Boil a pot of water, add the spaghetti, and cook for about 7–8 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon of olive oil while it’s boiling to keep it from clumping. Drain and set aside.
