A delicious and creamy pasta dish featuring succulent blackened steak and shrimp in an Alfredo sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 225 g penne pasta
  • 450 g large shrimp, raw, deveined, tails removed
  • 1 teaspoon blackened seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 450 g top sirloin steak, cut into 2.5 cm cubes
  • 57 g unsalted butter
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced (about 80 g)
  • 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
  • 476 ml heavy whipping cream
  • 200 g parmesan cheese, freshly grated
  • 1 tablespoon blackened seasoning
  • 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add penne and cook until al dente according to package instructions. Reserve 240 ml of pasta water; drain the rest. Set pasta aside.
  2. Season shrimp evenly with blackened seasoning. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet (33 cm) over medium heat. Once hot, add shrimp and cook for 1–2 minutes on each side until just opaque. Remove shrimp to a plate and cover to keep warm.
  3. Season steak cubes evenly with blackened seasoning. Increase skillet heat to high and add unsalted butter. Once butter starts to melt, add steak cubes. Sear for 1–2 minutes per side or until browned and medium-rare. Transfer steak to the plate with shrimp and keep covered.
  4. Reduce heat to medium. Add diced onion to the skillet and sauté until softened, about 3–5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  5. Pour in heavy cream and 60–120 ml of reserved pasta water. Add parmesan cheese, additional blackened seasoning, kosher salt, and black pepper. Stir constantly until cheese is fully melted and sauce slightly thickens.
  6. Return drained penne pasta to the skillet. Toss gently to coat the pasta evenly in the sauce. Add additional reserved pasta water, little by little, until reaching desired consistency.
  7. Top the coated pasta with cooked shrimp and steak. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Adjust blackened seasoning according to taste.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
