Ingredients
Scale
8 oz fettuccine pasta
1 lb steak (sirloin or ribeye)
2 tbsp Cajun seasoning
2 tbsp olive oil
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt and pepper, to taste
Chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve about 1 cup of the pasta water, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta is cooking, season the steak liberally with Cajun seasoning. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. When hot, add the steak and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, depending on thickness and your preferred doneness. Remove the steak, let it rest, and slice it thinly.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine, and let it simmer for a few minutes. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir until melted and smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add some reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency.
Once your sauce is ready, add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet, tossing it gently until coated. Finally, add the sliced steak and give it a final stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
