This rich and creamy fettuccine topped with tender steak is the ultimate comfort food for a special dinner!

Ingredients:

1 lb flank steak or your preferred cut of beef 🥩

8 oz fettuccine pasta 🍝

1 cup heavy cream 🧴

1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese 🧀

2 tbsp butter 🧈

1 tbsp olive oil 🧴

1 tsp garlic, minced 🧄

Salt and pepper to taste 🧂

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish) 🌿

Optional: Lemon zest for extra flavor 🍋

Instructions:

Cook the pasta:

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Cook the steak:

Season the steak with salt and pepper. Heat a grill or grill pan with olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium, or longer for your desired doneness. Let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.

Prepare the sauce:

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the heavy cream and bring it to a simmer. Once simmering, add the parmesan cheese and stir until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper.
Combine: Add the cooked fettuccine pasta into the sauce and toss to coat evenly.
Serve: Plate the creamy fettuccine and top with sliced steak. Garnish with fresh parsley and a sprinkle of parmesan.

Optional:

Add a touch of lemon zest for a refreshing twist!
