Creamy Garlic Steak Fettuccine
Elevate your dinner with this decadent dish! Juicy grilled steak paired with creamy fettuccine pasta and a velvety garlic sauce makes for an unforgettable meal.
Ingredients:
For the steak:
2 ribeye or sirloin steaks
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp butter
For the pasta:
12 oz (340g) fettuccine pasta
Salt for boiling water
For the garlic cream sauce:
3 tbsp butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp Italian seasoning
Salt and black pepper to taste
For garnish:
Fresh parsley, chopped
Freshly cracked black pepper
Instructions:
Prepare the Steak:
Season the steaks with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust to your preferred doneness. Add butter during the last minute of cooking for extra flavor. Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Cook the Fettuccine:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Make the Garlic Cream Sauce:
In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Stir in heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Add Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Combine the Pasta and Sauce:
Toss the cooked fettuccine in the garlic cream sauce until well coated.
Assemble the Dish:
Plate the creamy fettuccine and top with sliced steak. Drizzle extra garlic sauce over the steak for added richness.
Garnish and Serve:
Sprinkle fresh parsley and cracked black pepper on top. Serve hot with a side of sautéed spinach or a crisp green salad.
