Steak and Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo
Ingredients:
8 oz fettuccine pasta
2 steaks (ribeye or sirloin)
1/2 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions:
Cook the Pasta: Boil the fettuccine pasta in salted water according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Cook the Steaks: Season the steaks with salt and pepper. In a hot skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook the steaks for 4-6 minutes per side (or to your preferred doneness). Remove from the pan and let them rest.
Cook the Shrimp: In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and shrimp. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Alfredo Sauce: In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes until it thickens.
Combine with Cheese: Stir in the Parmesan cheese and continue to cook until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce.
Assemble the Dish: Slice the rested steaks into strips. Plate the pasta and top with the shrimp and steak slices. Garnish with fresh parsley for a fresh pop of flavor.
This indulgent dish pairs juicy steak, tender shrimp, and creamy Alfredo sauce over perfectly cooked pasta. It’s the perfect meal for a special occasion or anytime you want to treat yourself!
