Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Pasta

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions until al dente.
Reserve 2 tablespoons of pasta water, then drain and set aside.

Step 2: Cook the Steak

Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the steak strips with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Add the steak to the hot skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3: Make the Alfredo Sauce

In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the heavy cream, stirring constantly.
Add the Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.

Step 4: Combine Everything

Add the cooked pasta to the Alfredo sauce, tossing to coat. If the sauce is too thick, add a little reserved pasta water to loosen it.
Return the cooked steak to the skillet, mixing gently with the pasta.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Garnish with fresh parsley and extra Parmesan cheese.
Serve hot and enjoy your creamy garlic steak Alfredo!

Notes

Use High-Quality Parmesan: Freshly grated Parmesan melts better and gives the best flavor.
Don’t Overcook the Steak: Remove it from heat as soon as it’s done to keep it tender and juicy.
Adjust the Sauce Consistency: If the sauce is too thick, add a little more pasta water or cream.
