A rich and creamy one-pan dish featuring pepper jack cheese and steak, perfect for a quick yet comforting meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 oz fettuccine pasta
  • 1 lb steak (sirloin or ribeye)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook fettuccine pasta according to package instructions. Be sure to salt the water so the pasta is well seasoned. Once it’s al dente, drain it and set it aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the steak with salt and pepper, and then sear it in the skillet. Let it brown nicely on both sides—about 3-4 minutes per side usually does the trick. Remove it from the skillet and set it aside (don’t wash the skillet!).
  3. In the same skillet, add garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until it’s fragrant.
  4. Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream, bringing the mixture to a simmer.
  5. Stir in the pepper jack cheese until it’s melted and smooth.
  6. Add the cooked fettuccine and sliced steak back into the skillet. Toss everything together to coat it well with the sauce.
  7. Adjust seasoning as necessary. Taste and add more salt or pepper if you’d like.
  8. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

For best results, let the cheese melt completely. If the sauce is too thick, add more chicken broth or pasta water.
