Ingredients

For the Steak Alfredo:

• 12 oz rotini noodles, uncooked
• 1 lb eye of round steaks (or your preferred cut)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil or vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon Montreal steak spices
• 1/4 cup butter
• 3 tablespoons garlic puree
• 2 1/2 cups heavy cream
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 2/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Directions

1. Cook the Pasta

1. Boil the Pasta:
   Cook 12 oz of rotini pasta according to the directions on the package. Once cooked, drain the pasta and set it aside.

2. Prepare the Steaks

1. Season the Steaks:
   While the pasta is cooking, brush both sides of the 1 lb eye of round steaks with 1 tablespoon of olive oil or vegetable oil. Season both sides of the steaks with 1 tablespoon of Montreal steak spices for a flavorful crust.
2. Cook the Steaks:
   Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the steaks and cook for a few minutes on each side until they reach your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130-135°F, using an instant-read thermometer for accuracy.
3. Rest the Steaks:
   Transfer the cooked steaks to a cutting board and cover with aluminum foil to keep them warm while you prepare the Alfredo sauce.

3. Make the Alfredo Sauce

1. Prepare the Skillet:
   Give the skillet a quick wipe with a paper towel to remove any burnt bits and reduce the heat to medium.
2. Melt the Butter:
   Add 1/4 cup of butter to the skillet. Once the butter is melted, stir in 3 tablespoons of garlic puree.
3. Add the Cream:
   Pour in 2 1/2 cups of heavy cream and season with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Stir well and bring the mixture to a boil.
4. Thicken the Sauce:
   Allow the cream to boil for a few minutes, letting it thicken slightly.
5. Combine with Pasta:
   Reduce the heat to low and add the cooked rotini noodles to the skillet. Stir until the pasta is fully coated in the creamy Alfredo sauce.
6. Add Parmesan:
   Stir in 2/3 cup of shredded Parmesan cheese until it’s melted and fully incorporated into the sauce.

4. Assemble the Dish

1. Slice the Steaks:
   Slice the rested steaks into thin strips.
2. Plate the Pasta:
   Scoop the Alfredo pasta onto serving plates, and top each plate with the sliced steak.
3. Serve and Enjoy:
   Serve immediately and enjoy this decadent Steak Alfredo with your favorite sides or a simple green salad.
