Ingredients

Scale

Pasta

  • 12 oz linguine

Steak and Sauce

  • 1 lb sirloin steak
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan, grated
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Cook linguine: Boil the linguine in salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta and set it aside while you prepare the other components.
  2. Sear steak: In a skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Season the sirloin steak evenly with salt and black pepper. Sear the steak for about 3-4 minutes on each side to achieve medium-rare doneness. Once cooked, remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
  3. Sauté garlic: Using the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant and lightly golden, being careful not to burn it.
  4. Make sauce: Pour in the heavy cream, then add the grated Parmesan cheese, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir well to combine and let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly into a creamy consistency.
  5. Toss noodles: Add the cooked linguine directly into the skillet with the creamy sauce. Toss thoroughly to coat the noodles evenly with the rich garlic butter Parmesan sauce.
  6. Serve: Plate the coated linguine and top it with the sliced steak. Serve immediately while warm for optimal flavor and texture.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add some fresh chopped parsley or basil on top as a garnish.
  • You can substitute linguine for other pasta shapes like fettuccine or spaghetti based on preference.
  • Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to control the level of spiciness according to your taste.
