Ingredients

Scale

Cheese and Dairy

  • 8 oz Velveeta Cheese, cubed
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 2 tbsp Butter

Meat

  • 12 oz Steak (sirloin, ribeye, or NY strip), thinly sliced

Pasta and Vegetables

  • 8 oz Fettuccine Pasta
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped

Oils and Seasonings

  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prep the Steak: Season the steak with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak on both sides until it reaches your preferred doneness. Remove from the skillet and let it rest before slicing into thin strips.
  2. Cook the Fettuccine: Meanwhile, cook the fettuccine in boiling salted water until al dente, approximately 10-12 minutes. Drain the pasta and reserve a small amount of pasta water for later use.
  3. Make the Garlic Butter Cream Sauce: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant but not browned, about 1-2 minutes. Pour in the heavy cream and gradually stir in the Velveeta cheese pieces until the sauce is fully melted, smooth, and creamy.
  4. Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet with the cream sauce. Toss gently to coat the noodles evenly. If the sauce is too thick, slowly add reserved pasta water to loosen the sauce while maintaining creaminess.
  5. Add the Steak and Finish: Return the sliced steak to the skillet and stir lightly to combine. Cook together for 1-2 minutes to warm the steak through and marry the flavors.

Notes

  • Use tender cuts of steak like sirloin for the best results.
  • Melt Velveeta cheese slowly over low heat to keep the sauce smooth.
  • Cook garlic only until fragrant to avoid bitterness.
  • Reserve pasta water to adjust sauce consistency and help it cling to pasta.
  • Allow the steak to rest before slicing to retain juices.
