Learn how to make delicious Steak Bites over Cajun-Spiced Alfredo Rotini with Parmesan Cream Sauce. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.
Total Time:45 minutes
Yield:4 servings
Ingredients
1 pound sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
3 tablespoons olive oil
12 ounces rotini pasta
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
Begin by seasoning the steak pieces with Cajun seasoning, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Let them sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
While the steak is marinating, cook the rotini pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the steak bites and cook until they are browned and cooked to your desired doneness, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the butter. Once the butter has melted, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine with the garlic. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, then gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, stirring continuously until the sauce is smooth and thickened.
Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Add the cooked rotini to the skillet, tossing to coat the pasta evenly in the sauce.
Return the steak bites to the skillet, gently mixing them with the pasta and sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat everything through.
Garnish with chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your meal with a side of fresh bread to soak up any remaining sauce!
