Creamy Steak Alfredo
This decadent pasta dish combines perfectly seared steak with a velvety garlic parmesan sauce for the ultimate comfort meal.
dailyrecipesbook.comThere is something truly special about combining a juicy steak with a bowl of creamy fettuccine. It is the kind of dinner that feels like a fancy night out at a restaurant, but you can easily put it together in your own kitchen.
My biggest tip for this one is to let your steak rest for a few minutes before slicing it. This keeps all those delicious juices inside the meat rather than letting them run out onto the cutting board.
Ingredients
- 12 ounces fettuccine pasta
- 1 pound sirloin steak
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the fettuccine according to the package directions until al dente.
- 2
While the pasta cooks, season the steak generously with salt and pepper.
- 3
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
- 4
Sear the steak for about 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium doneness, then remove it from the pan and let it rest on a plate for 10 minutes.
- 5
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and stir in the minced garlic for about one minute until fragrant.
- 6
Pour the heavy cream into the skillet and bring it to a gentle simmer.
- 7
Stir in the parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and thickened.
- 8
Toss the cooked pasta into the sauce until well coated.
- 9
Slice the rested steak into thin strips.
- 10
Serve the pasta topped with the steak slices and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
๐ก Tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. If the sauce thickens too much when reheating, just add a tiny splash of milk or water to bring it back to a creamy consistency.
