Hey there, food lovers! 🍽️ Today, I’m excited to share a dish that’s all about comfort and flavor – Savory Steak Gorgonzola Alfredo with Creamy Parmesan Sauce! This luscious pasta dish brings together tender steak, rich cheeses, and a dreamy sauce that will make your taste buds dance. Let’s dive right in!
Here’s what you’ll need for this culinary masterpiece:
Ingredients:
- 1 pound of steak (sirloin or ribeye work beautifully), seasoned and cooked to your liking
- 12 ounces of fettuccine or your favorite pasta
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup of crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
- 1 tablespoon of all-purpose flour (optional, for those who like it a little thicker)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for that perfect garnish)
Now, let’s get cooking! Here’s how to bring everything together:
1. **Cook the Pasta**: Start by boiling your pasta according to the package instructions until it’s al dente. Once it's done, drain it and set it aside.
2. **Prepare the Steak**: Season your steak with salt and pepper for that perfect flavor. In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the steak to your preferred doneness. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thin strips.
3. **Make the Sauce**: In the same skillet (don’t wash it just yet!), add the olive oil and sauté the chopped onion. You want it to be soft and translucent, which will take about 5 minutes. Then, toss in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until it’s fragrant.
4. **Add Cream and Cheeses**: Pour that glorious heavy cream into the skillet and bring it to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan and crumbled Gorgonzola until everything is melted and creamy. If you like your sauce a bit thicker, whisk in a tablespoon of flour and give it a few more minutes to cook.
5. **Combine Pasta and Sauce**: Now, bring your cooked pasta into the sauce! Toss everything together until the pasta is well-coated. Add a bit more salt and pepper to taste, and let the flavors meld.
6. **Fold in the Steak**: Gently toss in your sliced steak, just enough to warm it through—this only takes a minute.
7. **Garnish and Serve**: Finish it off with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
And voila! Your Savory Steak Gorgonzola Alfredo is ready to be devoured. Serve it warm, and watch how quickly it disappears at the table! Enjoy every creamy, cheesy bite. Bon appétit! 🥳🍝✨
