Method
- Cook the tortellini according to the package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Pat the steak pieces dry and season them with salt and black pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak in a single layer and sear for 2 to 3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Transfer the steak to a plate.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Pour in the beef broth and stir, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Add the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes if using. Stir and simmer for 2 to 4 minutes until the sauce begins to thicken.
- Return the cooked steak and tortellini to the skillet. Toss gently to coat everything in the garlic cream sauce and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until heated through.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
Use freshly grated Parmesan for the smoothest sauce. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a splash more beef broth or a little pasta water to loosen it.
