Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ribeye or sirloin steaks
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tsp garlic powder
For the Alfredo Sauce:
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper, to taste
For the Gorgonzola Topping:
- ½ cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
- ¼ cup balsamic glaze
- Fresh spinach (optional)
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
For the Pasta:
- 12 oz fettuccine or your favorite pasta
Instructions
- Cook the Steak:
Rub steaks with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Let them sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove and let rest before slicing. - Cook the Pasta:
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook fettuccine according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside. - Make the Alfredo Sauce:
In a large pan, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant. Stir in heavy cream, bringing it to a gentle simmer. Add grated Parmesan and stir until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste. - Assemble the Dish:
Toss the cooked pasta in the Alfredo sauce. Divide onto plates and top with sliced steak. Sprinkle crumbled Gorgonzola and drizzle balsamic glaze over the top. Optionally, serve with fresh spinach and garnish with parsley.
Notes
- For a lighter option, substitute the heavy cream with half-and-half.
- Resting the steak after cooking is crucial to lock in juices—don’t skip this step!
- You can easily swap fettuccine for any pasta you have on hand.
