Description
Indulgent and comforting steak bites in a creamy Parmesan sauce, served over perfectly cooked pasta.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb steak (cut into bite-sized pieces)
- 4 tablespoons garlic butter
- 8 oz pasta (fettuccine or linguine)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, melt the garlic butter over medium-high heat.
- Season the steak bites with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Sear until browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness, usually around 3 to 5 minutes.
- Once cooked, remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until it’s well blended and creamy.
- Toss the cooked pasta and steak bites in the creamy sauce until everything is well coated.
- Serve hot, adorned with fresh parsley for a pop of color.
Notes
For a spicier option, add sautéed jalapeños. Marinating steak bites in garlic butter beforehand enhances the flavor. Reserve some pasta cooking water for reheating the sauce.
