# Ingredients:
→ Pasta
01 -
340g (12 oz) linguine
→ Protein
02 -
450g (1 lb) sirloin steak
→ Sauce
03 -
30g (2 tbsp) butter, divided
04 -
3 cloves garlic, minced
05 -
120ml (1/2 cup) heavy cream
06 -
25g (1/4 cup) Parmesan cheese, freshly grated

1 tsp black pepper
08 -
1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
# Instructions:
01 -
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook linguine according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
02 -
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Season steak with salt and pepper, then sear for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove from skillet and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
03 -
Using the same skillet with the steak juices, add the remaining tablespoon of butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn.
04 -
Pour in heavy cream, add grated Parmesan, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Stir continuously and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens and the cheese melts completely.
05 -
Add the cooked linguine to the skillet and toss thoroughly to coat with the creamy sauce. Fold in the sliced steak and heat through for another minute. Serve immediately.
# Notes:
01 -
For best results, don't overcook the steak - it will continue cooking slightly when added back to the hot pasta.
02 -
Reserve a small amount of pasta water before draining to thin the sauce if needed.
