Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp Butter
  • 5 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 3/4 cup Whole Milk
  • 1 1/4 cups Parmesan Cheese, shredded
  • Cracked Black Pepper, to taste
  • 1 lb Steak (Sirloin or Ribeye)
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black Pepper, to taste
  • Garlic Powder, to taste
  • Smoked Paprika, to taste
  • Cheese Tortellini
  • Parsley, chopped (for garnishing)
  • Red Pepper Flakes (for a spicy kick)
  • Splash of Wine (optional for deglazing)

Instructions

  1. Cook the Tortellini: Start by cooking the cheese tortellini according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Prepare the Steak: Pat the steak dry with paper towels and season both sides generously with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
  3. Sear the Steak: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steak and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest.
  4. Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Build the Creamy Base: Slowly pour in the heavy cream and whole milk, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle simmer.
  6. Add Cheese: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue stirring until smooth. Season with cracked black pepper to taste.
  7. Combine Ingredients: Slice the steak into strips and add it back to the skillet along with the cooked tortellini. Toss gently in the sauce until well combined.
  8. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with chopped parsley and red pepper flakes. Serve immediately.

Notes

Don’t overcook the steak; use a meat thermometer for best results. For thicker sauce, simmer longer before adding cheese.
