Ingredients
Scale
- 12 oz linguine
- 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
- Cook linguine: Boil the linguine in salted water according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Sear steak: In a skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Season the steak with salt and pepper, then sear for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove the steak from the skillet, let rest, and slice thinly.
- Sauté garlic: In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Make sauce: Add heavy cream, Parmesan, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Stir well and let simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Toss noodles: Add the cooked linguine to the skillet and toss to coat the noodles in the creamy sauce.
- Serve: Plate the noodles and top with the sliced steak. Serve immediately while warm.
Notes
- For extra flavor, add some fresh chopped parsley or basil on top.
- Use a different pasta shape like fettuccine or spaghetti if you prefer.
- You can adjust the amount of red pepper flakes depending on your spice tolerance.
