Recipes:
Steak and Shrimp Pasta with Creamy Garlic Sauce
Ingredients:
2 steaks (such as ribeye, filet mignon, or sirloin)
1/2 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
8 oz pasta (spaghetti or fettuccine)
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions:
Cook the pasta:
Cook your pasta according to the package instructions, drain and set aside.
Prepare the steak:
Season the steaks with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning on both sides.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, cook the steaks to your preferred doneness, about 4-5 minutes per side for medium rare.
Remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest. Once rested, slice the steak into thin strips.
Cook the shrimp:
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until they are opaque and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Make the creamy sauce:
In the same skillet, add butter and garlic, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to thicken.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Combine everything:
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet with the creamy sauce and toss until fully coated.
Add the shrimp and steak on top of the pasta, mixing them in gently.
Serve:
Garnish with fresh parsley and a little more Parmesan if desired.
Serve hot and enjoy!
This dish combines savory steak and shrimp with a creamy, garlicky sauce over pasta. It’s indulgent, flavorful, and perfect for a comforting meal. Enjoy!
