Description

Creamy Steak Pasta combines tender slices of seared steak with pasta in a rich garlic cream sauce, creating a hearty and satisfying meal perfect for weeknight dinners or special occasions. The dish features fettuccine or penne pasta tossed in a savory sauce made with heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, garlic, and Italian seasoning, garnished with fresh parsley.

Ingredients

Pasta

  • 12 oz pasta (fettuccine or penne)

Steak

  • 1 pound steak (sirloin or ribeye), sliced
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Sauce & Seasoning

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Garnish

  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook Pasta: Boil a large pot of salted water and cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. Season Steak: Pat the steak slices dry and season them generously with salt and black pepper on all sides.
  3. Sear Steak: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the seasoned steak slices and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
  4. Sauté Garlic: In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds to 1 minute, being careful not to burn it.
  5. Create Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and beef broth. Stir in the Italian seasoning, then simmer the sauce for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it slightly thickens.
  6. Add Cheese: Stir the grated Parmesan cheese into the sauce until fully melted and the sauce is creamy.
  7. Toss Pasta and Steak: Return the cooked pasta and seared steak slices to the skillet. Toss everything together thoroughly to coat the pasta and steak evenly with the creamy sauce.
  8. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the dish for a burst of color and fresh flavor before serving warm.

Notes

  • Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best flavor and texture in the sauce.
  • Mushrooms can be added to the sauce when sautéing garlic for extra richness and depth of flavor.
