Ingredients
225g fettuccine pasta
250g steak (sirloin or ribeye)
200g Velveeta cheese, cubed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup heavy cream
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan (optional)
Instructions
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add fettuccine and cook until al dente. Drain and reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water.
2. Pat steak dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steak for 3–4 minutes per side, then remove and let rest.
4. Lower the heat to medium. Add butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
5. Pour in heavy cream and stir to combine. Add cubed Velveeta and stir constantly until melted and smooth.
6. Add cooked fettuccine to the skillet and toss gently to coat in the sauce. Add a splash of pasta water if needed.
7. Slice steak thinly against the grain.
8. Serve pasta topped with steak slices. Garnish with parsley and Parmesan.
Notes
Slice steak against the grain for tenderness.
Don’t skip reserving pasta water—it helps loosen the sauce.
Keep the heat low when melting Velveeta to maintain a creamy texture.
