Ingredients
1.5 lb sirloin steak cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
20 oz fresh or frozen cheese tortellini
1 tablespoon salt for pasta water
4 tablespoon butter
6 cloves garlic minced
1.5 cups heavy cream
1 cup parmesan cheese freshly grated
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
½ cup reserved pasta water as needed
¼ cup fresh parsley chopped
¼ cup parmesan cheese extra for topping
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the sirloin steak pieces with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning, then add to the skillet. Cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated parmesan cheese until melted and creamy. Season with ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning.
- Meanwhile, cook the tortellini according to package instructions in a large pot of salted boiling water. Reserve ½ cup of the pasta water, then drain the tortellini.
- Add the cooked tortellini and the reserved steak to the skillet with the garlic cream sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add reserved pasta water a little at a time until desired consistency is reached.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and an extra sprinkle of parmesan cheese before serving.
