Instructions
 

  • #### 1. Cook the pasta:
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water before draining.
  • #### 2. Prepare the steak:
  • Season the steak slices with salt, pepper, and rosemary. Heat olive oil and butter in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak slices and sear for 2–3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Add garlic during the last minute of cooking, stirring to coat the steak. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • #### 3. Make the Alfredo sauce:
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté the garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute). Add the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in Parmesan cheese and whisk until melted and smooth. Add Gorgonzola cheese and stir until combined. Season with black pepper and nutmeg, if using. Adjust the thickness of the sauce with reserved pasta water if needed.
  • #### 4. Combine the pasta and sauce:
  • Toss the cooked pasta with the Alfredo sauce until well coated.
  • #### 5. Assemble the dish:
  • Top the pasta with the seared steak slices. Garnish with parsley, additional Gorgonzola crumbles, and shaved Parmesan if desired.
