Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Pot

Ingredients
  

For the Tortellini

  • 1 package Cheese Tortellini Choose fresh or refrigerated for best results.

For the Steak

  • 1 lb Steak (sirloin or ribeye) Sirloin is leaner; ribeye offers richer flavor.

For the Seasoning

  • 1 tsp Salt Enhances steak flavors.
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper Freshly cracked adds a kick.
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder Boosts garlic flavor.
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika Optional but adds smokiness.

For the Sauce

  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil For searing steak.
  • 4 tbsp Butter Creates a creamy sauce.
  • 5 cloves Garlic (minced) Star ingredient for aroma.
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream For velvety consistency.
  • 3/4 cup Whole Milk Balances richness.
  • 1 1/4 cups Parmesan Cheese (shredded) Thickens the sauce.

For Garnishing

  • Chopped Parsley Optional for freshness.
  • Red Pepper Flakes Optional for zest.
  • Cracked Black Pepper Optional for flavor boost.

Instructions
 

Cooking Steps

  • Bring salted water to a boil and cook the cheese tortellini for about 3-5 minutes until they reach an al dente texture. Drain gently and let them rest.
  • In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the steak and sear for 3-5 minutes until browned, then remove and let rest.
  • Melt the butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Stir in the heavy cream and whole milk. Let simmer for about 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
  • Gradually add shredded parmesan cheese, stirring continuously until it melts into a velvety sauce.
  • Return the seared steak and the tortellini to the skillet. Toss gently for about 2 minutes, coating everything in the sauce.
  • Dish out your meal and garnish with parsley, cracked black pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

Optional: Add toasted garlic bread on the side for a delightful crunch.
