Ingredients

8 oz fettuccine pasta

1 lb beef strips (sirloin or ribeye)

3 tablespoons butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

Salt to taste

Black pepper to taste

2 tablespoons chopped parsley (optional)


Instructions

1. Slice beef against the grain into thin strips. Heat oil in a skillet and sear beef in batches, 2–3 minutes each, then set aside.

2. Cook fettuccine in salted boiling water until al dente. Reserve some pasta water and drain.

3. In the same skillet, melt butter and add minced garlic. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

4. Pour in heavy cream, bring to simmer, then stir in parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper.

5. Return beef to skillet, add fettuccine, and toss everything to coat. Use pasta water to adjust sauce consistency.

6. Serve hot, topped with parsley and extra parmesan if desired.

Notes

For richer flavor, use freshly grated parmesan instead of pre-shredded.

Reserve pasta water—it’s key for a glossy, restaurant-quality sauce.
