  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 pound sirloin steak, ribeye, or New York strip
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 12 ounces fettuccine, penne, or rigatoni
  • 1 tablespoon salt (for pasta water)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente.
  2. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining the pasta.
  3. Pat the steak dry and season both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
  4. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Cook the steak for 3 to 5 minutes per side, depending on thickness and preferred doneness.
  6. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
  7. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and melt the butter.
  8. Add the garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  9. Pour in the heavy cream and stir well.
  10. Add the Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using.
  11. Simmer gently for 3 to 4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  12. Add the cooked pasta and toss until evenly coated.
  13. If needed, add a little reserved pasta water to loosen the sauce.
  14. Slice the steak thinly against the grain.
  15. Arrange the steak over the pasta.
  16. Garnish with fresh parsley and additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
  17. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Allow the steak to rest before slicing to keep it tender and juicy.
  • Freshly grated Parmesan cheese melts more smoothly than pre-shredded cheese.
  • Add mushrooms, spinach, broccoli, or asparagus for extra vegetables.
  • Use Cajun seasoning for a spicy variation.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently with a splash of milk or cream to restore the sauce texture.
