  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • to taste salt and black pepper
  • 20 oz cheese tortellini, fresh or refrigerated
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • to garnish fresh parsley, chopped

Equipment

  • Large pot for boiling pasta
  • Colander

Method
 

  1. Boil salted water in a large pot and cook the cheese tortellini according to package instructions (5-7 minutes). Drain and reserve 1 cup of pasta water.
  2. Season the steak tips with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the steak for 2-3 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of butter and sauté minced garlic for 1 minute. Return the steak to coat in the garlic butter and keep warm.
  4. In a separate pan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter, sauté minced garlic for 1 minute, then add heavy cream and cream cheese. Stir until smooth, adding Parmesan, mozzarella, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  5. Combine the cooked tortellini with the garlic cream sauce until well-coated.
  6. Serve the creamy tortellini topped with garlic butter steak, garnished with parsley and extra Parmesan.

Notes

For added flavor, marinate the steak tips in the spices for at least 30 minutes before cooking. If you have leftovers, store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently with a splash of milk or cream to maintain creaminess. You can substitute steak tips with chicken or vegetables for a different variation. Enjoy the rich flavors of this dish as a cozy dinner or a special occasion meal!
