Sastojci

1 lb beef sirloin or flank steak, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

4 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

12 oz rotini pasta

1 1/4 cups heavy cream

3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup reserved pasta water (if needed)

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Extra Parmesan for serving

Upute

Cook rotini pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente. Reserve 1/4 cup pasta water, then drain and set aside.

While the pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the beef slices with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.

Add beef to the skillet and sear until browned on both sides and cooked through, about 4–6 minutes. Remove and set aside.

In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add butter and let it melt. Stir in minced garlic and red pepper flakes (if using), sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Pour in the heavy cream, bring to a simmer, and stir in Parmesan cheese. Let the sauce thicken for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add cooked rotini and beef back to the skillet. Toss everything to coat evenly. If the sauce is too thick, stir in a bit of the reserved pasta water.

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Garnish with chopped parsley and extra Parmesan before serving.
