Ingredients

Scale

8 oz fettuccine or spaghetti

4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
2 tbsp olive oil
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Season the steak with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the steak until browned (3-4 minutes per side). Remove from pan and let rest.
2. Cook pasta in salted boiling water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain, reserving some pasta water.
3. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in heavy cream, scraping up brown bits, then stir in Parmesan cheese and reserved pasta water to achieve desired creaminess.
4. Slice rested steak thinly against the grain and return it to the pan with cooked pasta. Toss everything gently until well-coated.
5. Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley and an extra sprinkle of Parmesan if desired.
