Ingredients

• 12 oz fettuccine (or pasta of choice)
• 1 lb sirloin or ribeye steak
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup heavy cream
• ½ cup low-sodium beef broth
• ¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• ½ cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Cook the Pasta
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook fettuccine according to package directions until al dente. Reserve ½ cup pasta water, then drain and set aside.

2. Sear the Steak
Pat steak dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steak 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare (adjust for preferred doneness). Remove steak from skillet, let it rest 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.

3. Make the Alfredo Sauce
In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add butter and garlic, sautéing until fragrant (about 1 minute). Stir in cream and beef broth, letting it simmer 2–3 minutes. Add Parmesan and stir until smooth and creamy.

4. Add the Gorgonzola
Stir in the crumbled Gorgonzola cheese until melted and the sauce is rich and tangy. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of reserved pasta water to loosen it.

5. Combine and Serve
Toss the cooked pasta in the sauce until coated. Plate with sliced steak on top, garnish with parsley, and serve immediately.

Tips for Success

• Extra Flavor Boost: Add a drizzle of balsamic glaze over the top before serving.
