Ingredients
- 2 ribeye steaks
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 8 oz pasta
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Fresh herbs (parsley, basil) for garnish
Directions
- Start by seasoning your ribeye steaks with salt and pepper all over.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and let it cook for a minute until fragrant.
- Place the steaks in the skillet. Sear each side for about 4-5 minutes for medium-rare. While cooking, spoon some of the garlic butter over the steaks to keep them juicy.
- After cooking, take the steaks out of the skillet and let them rest on a plate for a few minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to the package instructions. It should be nice and tender.
- When the pasta is done, drain it and put it back in the pot. Add olive oil and grated Parmesan cheese, mixing everything together until well combined.
- Now it’s time to serve! Place the steaks next to the cheesy herb pasta on a plate. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley and basil for a pretty touch.
Tips to Make Garlic Butter Steak with Cheesy Herb Pasta
- Make sure your skillet is hot enough before adding the steaks. This helps to get a nice sear.
- Let the steaks rest after cooking. This keeps them juicy.
- You can use any pasta you like, but fettuccine or penne works great!
- Feel free to add extra herbs or spices to the pasta for more flavor.
