Ingredients

Scale

Steak

  • 1 lb sirloin or ribeye steak, sliced thinly
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1–2 tbsp butter or oil, for searing

Pasta

  • 12 oz fettuccine pasta
  • Salt, for pasta water

Garlic Butter Sauce

  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Garnish

  • Fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Steak: Season the steak generously with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, add butter or oil, and sear the steak for 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove from pan and let rest before slicing thinly against the grain.
  2. Cook the Fettuccine: Boil a large pot of salted water and cook the fettuccine until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving a little pasta water, and set aside.
  3. Make the Garlic Butter Sauce: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant but not browned, about 1 minute. Stir in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Add grated parmesan cheese and whisk until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Combine Pasta and Steak: Add the cooked fettuccine to the sauce, tossing gently to coat the noodles evenly. If the sauce is too thick, add reserved pasta water a little at a time until the desired creamy consistency is reached. Fold in the sliced steak to warm through.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top and serve immediately while warm and indulgent.

Notes

  • Rest your steak after cooking to retain juices and tenderness.
  • Cook pasta to al dente for ideal texture.
  • Use fresh garlic for a vibrant and sharp flavor.
  • Reserve pasta water to adjust sauce consistency without diluting flavor.
  • Simmer cream and cheese gently to avoid curdling and maintain a silky sauce.
