Indulge in the delectable world of savory garlic steak tortellini with this quick and easy recipe that brings a taste of Italian-inspired cuisine right to your table in just 25 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale:
12 oz refrigerated tortellini (cheese or meat-filled)
1 lb sirloin steak or ribeye, trimmed and cut into bite-size pieces
Salt and pepper, to taste
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp Italian seasoning
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Additional Parmesan cheese, for serving
Instructions
Start by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the tortellini and cook according to the package instructions until al dente, usually around 3-5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak pieces with salt and pepper.
Once the oil is hot, add the steak to the skillet, cooking until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the steak from the skillet and set it aside to rest.
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the heavy cream to the skillet, stirring well to combine with the garlic. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, mixing until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.
Add the cooked tortellini and the steak back into the skillet. Toss everything together gently to coat the pasta and steak in the creamy garlic sauce.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley and additional grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
