Ingredients
– 1 pound steak (sirloin, ribeye, or your choice)
– 2 cups tortellini (fresh or refrigerated)
– 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
– 4 cloves garlic (minced)
– 1 cup heavy cream
– ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
– Salt (to taste)
– Black pepper (to taste)
– Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Creating the Garlic Steak Tortellini is straightforward with these easy-to-follow steps:
1. Cook Tortellini: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the tortellini according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Prepare the Steak: While the tortellini is cooking, season the steak with salt and black pepper.
3. Sear the Steak: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the steak and cook for 3-5 minutes per side, depending on your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice it into strips.
4. Make the Garlic Sauce: In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
5. Add Cream: Pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 2-3 minutes.
6. Incorporate Cheese: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until it melts and the sauce thickens slightly.
7. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked tortellini and sliced steak to the skillet. Gently toss until everything is well coated in the sauce.
8. Season to Taste: Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if necessary.
9. Serve Immediately: Transfer the Garlic Steak Tortellini to serving plates, garnishing with chopped parsley for a burst of freshness.
