Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the bowtie pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 10-12 minutes.

Drain the pasta in a colander and set aside.

In a large skillet over medium heat, add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, about 5-7 minutes.

Drain excess fat if necessary and season with salt and pepper.

In the same skillet, reduce heat to low and add the melted butter and minced garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Add the cooked pasta and ground beef to the skillet. Toss to combine and heat through for another 2-3 minutes.

Remove from heat, stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
