Ingredients
10 oz ribeye or sirloin steak
8 oz fettuccine pasta
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp olive oil
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup Velveeta cheese, diced
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper (optional)
Instructions
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook fettuccine until al dente, then drain and set aside.
2. Season steak with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil and 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
3. Sear steak 3–4 minutes per side for medium rare, or until desired doneness. Remove and let rest.
4. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add remaining butter and minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant.
5. Pour in heavy cream and simmer gently for 2–3 minutes.
6. Add Velveeta cheese and stir until fully melted and smooth. Mix in parmesan cheese.
7. Toss cooked fettuccine into the sauce. Stir to coat pasta thoroughly and simmer for 1–2 more minutes.
8. Slice steak thinly against the grain.
9. Plate the pasta, top with steak slices, and garnish with parsley and optional crushed red pepper.
10. Serve hot and enjoy.
Notes
Let the steak rest before slicing to lock in juices and keep it tender.
If sauce thickens too much, stir in a splash of cream or pasta water to loosen it.
