Ingredients
  

  • 1 lbs sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 7 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 12 oz fettuccine pasta
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 0.5 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 0.5 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • to garnish fresh parsley or basil, chopped

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Large pot for boiling pasta
  • Tongs for tossing the pasta
  • Cutting board and knife
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the fettuccine, and cook until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
  2. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant. Pour in heavy cream and milk, whisking until smooth. Lower heat and mix in mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses until melted. Season with Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and optional red pepper flakes. Toss drained fettuccine in sauce, using pasta water to achieve desired texture.
  3. Pat steak cubes dry and season with smoked paprika, Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Heat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, and sear steak for 2-3 minutes per side until browned. Reduce heat, add 3 tablespoons of butter and remaining minced garlic, cooking for 1-2 minutes while basting.
  4. Plate cheesy fettuccine and garlic butter steak, garnishing with fresh parsley or basil and a dusting of Parmesan.

Notes

For a tender and flavorful steak, let it rest for a few minutes after cooking. Use room-temperature butter for the garlic butter to ensure even melting. Feel free to substitute ingredients based on your preference, such as using different cuts of beef or types of cheese. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days; reheat separately for best results.
