If you’re looking for a tasty dish that combines creamy pasta with a spicy kick, Cajun Steak Alfredo is the perfect choice! This recipe brings together rich flavors and simple steps to create a meal that everyone will love.
Ingredients:
- Fettuccine pasta
- Heavy cream
- Parmesan cheese
- Cajun seasoning
- Olive oil
- Black pepper
- Garlic cloves
- Ribeye steak
- Salt
- Fresh parsley (for garnish)
Directions:
- Start by cooking the fettuccine pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set it aside.
- In a skillet, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the ribeye steak generously with salt, black pepper, and Cajun seasoning.
- Sear the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for a mouthwatering medium-rare finish. Adjust the cooking time if you prefer it more or less cooked. Once it’s done, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing.
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and toss in the minced garlic. Sauté it for about 1 minute until it smells great.
- Pour in the heavy cream and stir it well as it heats up. Then add the grated Parmesan cheese and mix until it melts into a creamy sauce.
- Stir in more Cajun seasoning to taste. Gently add the cooked fettuccine into the skillet and toss everything together until the pasta is well coated in that creamy sauce.
- Slice the steak against the grain, then arrange it on top of your creamy Cajun fettuccine. Don’t forget to sprinkle some fresh parsley on top for a nice touch!
- Serve hot and enjoy this delicious dish that will leave everyone asking for more!
