Scale
For the Steak:
- 1 lb flank steak, sliced into strips
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
For the Pasta:
- 12 oz fettuccine or penne pasta
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup Alfredo sauce
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Chopped parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Season the Steak: Season the steak strips with garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
- Sear the Steak: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak strips and cook for 3–4 minutes until browned. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
- Prepare the Sauce Base: In the same skillet, pour in the beef broth and heavy cream. Stir while scraping the bottom of the skillet to release the flavorful browned bits.
- Cook the Pasta: Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then add the uncooked pasta. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta becomes tender.
- Make it Creamy: Return the cooked steak to the skillet and stir in the Alfredo sauce and grated Parmesan cheese.
- Combine Everything: Mix well until the sauce becomes smooth, creamy, and coats the pasta evenly.
- Serve: Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.
