Description

Creamy, rich, and packed with savory steak, this Steak Bites Alfredo Pasta is the perfect comfort dish for both weeknight dinners and special occasions. Quick to prepare, it’s a pasta favorite you’ll want to make again and again.

Ingredients

Scale

8 oz fettuccine pasta (or any pasta of choice)
1 lb sirloin steak (ribeye or filet mignon also work)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
3 garlic cloves, minced
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Boil a large pot of salted water and cook fettuccine according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season steak with salt and pepper, then sear for 3–4 minutes on each side. Remove from skillet and let rest.
In the same skillet, sauté minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in Parmesan cheese and let it melt. Add pasta water a little at a time if sauce is too thick.
Slice the rested steak into bite-sized pieces and add to the sauce. Toss in drained pasta and stir until well coated.
Serve warm and garnish with chopped parsley.

Notes

Let the steak rest before slicing to keep it juicy. If you enjoy garlic, consider roasting it beforehand for a sweeter flavor. This dish also works well with chicken or shrimp as protein alternatives.
