Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 lb Steak bites
- 3 tbsp Butter
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 package Tortellini (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Tortellini: Cook the tortellini according to package instructions; drain and set aside.
- Cook the Steak Bites: In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the steak bites, seasoning them with salt and pepper. Sear until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the Garlic Butter: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Prepare the Alfredo Sauce: Reduce heat to low, then pour in the heavy cream, stirring constantly to combine. Add grated Parmesan cheese and let simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Combine: Add the cooked tortellini to the sauce, tossing to coat. Finally, incorporate the seared steak bites, stirring gently to warm everything through. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
- Serve: Garnish with chopped parsley before serving!
Notes
For the juiciest steak bites, avoid overcooking; aim for medium-rare. Feel free to substitute or add vegetables, like spinach or mushrooms, in the Alfredo sauce for extra flavor and nutrition.
