Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Cook the tortellini according to the package directions. Drain and set aside, reserving a bit of pasta water.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the cubed steak, seasoning with salt and pepper, and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the steak from the pan and set aside.
Cooking
- In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in the heavy cream and bring it to a simmer. Stir in half of the Parmesan cheese until it melts and the sauce begins to thicken.
- Return the steak to the skillet, then add the cooked tortellini and spinach, gently tossing everything to combine. If the sauce is too thick, add a bit of the reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency.
- Allow everything to cook together for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts and the dish is heated through.
Serving
- Top with the remaining Parmesan cheese and freshly cracked pepper before serving.
Notes
To store, let cool to room temperature before transferring to an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat gently on the stove, adding a splash of cream. Avoid microwaving if possible to prevent dryness.
