Ingredients

Scale

Steak

  • 1 lb ribeye or sirloin steak
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Cheese and Dairy

  • 4 oz Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp butter

Aromatics and Herbs

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Pasta

  • 12 oz fettuccine or your favorite pasta

Seasoning

  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the steak: Season the steak generously with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the steak for 3-4 minutes per side, depending on thickness and desired doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest to lock in the juices.
  2. Cook the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving some pasta water, and set aside.
  3. Make the Alfredo sauce: In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant. Slowly whisk in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the crumbled Gorgonzola cheese, stirring until melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Combine pasta and sauce: Return the cooked pasta to the skillet with the Alfredo sauce. Toss gently to coat every strand, adding a splash of reserved pasta water if the sauce needs loosening.
  5. Slice and add steak: Slice the rested steak thinly against the grain. Layer the steak slices on top of the pasta and give everything a final gentle toss to combine flavors.
  6. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the dish to add brightness and a fresh finish. Serve immediately for the best creamy, cheesy experience.

Notes

  • Rest your steak after cooking to keep it tender and juicy.
  • Use high-quality Gorgonzola cheese for optimal flavor.
  • Cook pasta al dente to ensure it holds up in the rich sauce.
  • Use reserved pasta water to adjust the sauce thickness gently instead of adding more cream.
  • Finely mince or grate garlic to infuse the sauce evenly without overpowering.
