Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb steak (sirloin or ribeye), cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons butter (divided)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 8 oz rotini pasta (or any short pasta)
  • 2.53 cups water or broth
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add steak pieces seasoned with salt and pepper; sear for 2–3 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter. Add minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes; sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Pour in heavy cream, stirring well. Simmer for about 3–4 minutes until slightly thickened.
  4. Stir in grated parmesan until melted into the sauce.
  5. Add uncooked rotini pasta and water or broth to the skillet. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and cover; simmer for about 10–12 minutes until pasta is al dente.
  6. Once cooked, return the steak along with its juices back into the skillet. Mix well to coat everything in the creamy sauce.
  7. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary before serving hot, garnished with parsley.
