 Ingredients

  • 20 oz cheese tortellini (fresh or refrigerated)
  • 1 lb steak (sirloin or ribeye), cut into bite-sized pieces
  • Salt and black pepper (to taste)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1½ cups broccoli florets (steamed or blanched)
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ¾ cup whole milk
  • 1¼ cups grated parmesan cheese

Optional:

  • Red pepper flakes (for heat)
  • Fresh parsley (for garnish)
  • Extra parmesan cheese

 Instructions

1. Cook the tortellini
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

2. Sear the steak
Season the steak pieces with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak bites for 3–5 minutes until browned on the outside and juicy inside. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3. Make the garlic parmesan sauce
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and milk, stirring well. Let it simmer for 3–4 minutes until slightly thickened.

4. Add the vegetables
Stir in the broccoli and spinach. Cook until the spinach wilts and blends into the sauce.

5. Add the cheese
Sprinkle in the parmesan cheese and stir until fully melted and smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

6. Combine everything
Return the cooked steak and tortellini to the skillet. Gently toss everything together until well coated in the creamy sauce.

7. Garnish and serve
Top with fresh parsley, extra parmesan, and red pepper flakes if desired. Serve warm.
