Ingredients
- 1 lb steak (sirloin or ribeye), cut into bite-sized pieces
- 10 oz cheese tortellini (fresh or frozen)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Cook tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steak pieces until browned and cooked to your liking. Remove from pan and set aside.
