Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb sirloin steak (or chicken/turkey)
  • 12 oz twisted pasta (rotini or fusilli)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp Cajun seasoning
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Olive oil for cooking

Method
 

  1. Boil Pasta:

    Boil the twisted pasta in salted water until al dente; drain and reserve.

  2. Brown Steak:

    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm olive oil. Add the steak pieces and brown on all sides. Remove and reserve.

  3. Make Cream Sauce:

    Reduce heat in the same skillet and melt butter. Mix in heavy cream and Cajun seasoning; simmer until the sauce thickens a bit.

  4. Combine Pasta and Steak:

    Toss the drained pasta with the sauce, then fold in grated Parmesan and the reserved steak bites.
