Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb top sirloin steak Cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 20 oz cheese tortellini Refrigerated package
  • 5 tablespoon butter Divided use
  • 4 cloves garlic Minced
  • 1.5 cups heavy cream Room temperature
  • ½ cup beef broth Low sodium
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese Freshly grated
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil For searing
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning Dried herbs
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper Cracked
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley Chopped garnish

Equipment

  • 1 Large skillet Cast iron preferred
  • 1 Large pot For pasta
  • 1 Tongs For steak

Method
 

  1. Boil tortellini in salted water until al dente; drain and set aside.
  2. Sear seasoned steak cubes in hot oil for 2-3 mins per side; remove from pan.
  3. Melt butter in the same skillet; sauté garlic and deglaze with beef broth.
  4. Add heavy cream and Italian seasoning; simmer to thicken, then stir in Parmesan.

Notes

Sear the steak in a very hot pan for a good crust. Use freshly grated Parmesan for the smoothest sauce.
