Garlic Butter Steak Lightning Noodles (Printable Version)

Juicy steak and noodles coated in creamy garlic butter, finished with Parmesan and a hint of spice.

# What You'll Need:

01 - 340 g linguine
02 - 450 g sirloin steak
03 - 28 g unsalted butter
04 - 3 cloves garlic, minced
05 - 120 ml heavy cream
06 - 25 g Parmesan cheese, grated
07 - 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
08 - 0.5 tsp fine salt
09 - 0.5 tsp red pepper flakes

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add linguine and cook until al dente according to package directions. Drain thoroughly and set aside.
02 - Pat the sirloin steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides evenly with salt and black pepper. Heat 14 g of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steak for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove from the skillet, allow to rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
03 - In the same skillet, melt remaining 14 g of butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until aromatic.
04 - Pour in heavy cream and stir in grated Parmesan, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Whisk continuously for 2–3 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
05 - Add the drained linguine to the skillet, tossing gently to coat the pasta evenly with the sauce.
06 - Arrange the sauced linguine onto serving plates. Top generously with sliced steak and serve immediately while hot.

# Additional Notes:

01 - Enhance the final dish with fresh chopped parsley or basil.
02 - Linguine can be substituted with fettuccine or spaghetti for similar results.
03 - Adjust red pepper flakes for preferred spice level.
