Beef and Garlic Butter Pasta: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Olivia Turner
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

– 8 ounces of pasta (spaghetti, fettuccine, or your choice)
– 1 pound of beef sirloin, cut into strips
– 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter
– 4 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon of dried Italian herbs (oregano or basil)
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
– Grated Parmesan cheese (for serving, optional)


Instructions

Making Beef and Garlic Butter Pasta is easy if you follow these simple steps:

1. Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a bit of pasta water.
2. Sear the Beef: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the beef strips and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, until browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
3. Prepare Garlic Butter: In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
4. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing it in the garlic butter. Add the seared beef back in. If the pasta seems dry, add a splash of reserved pasta water.
5. Season: Sprinkle the dried Italian herbs over the pasta and toss again to combine. Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed.
6. Garnish: Remove from heat, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and serve immediately.
7. Serve with Cheese: If desired, top each serving with grated Parmesan cheese for an extra burst of flavor.
