Notes
-
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese melts better and gives the sauce a smoother texture.
-
Substitute bowtie pasta with penne, rotini, or shells if desired.
-
Use fresh, frozen, or roasted sweet corn depending on availability — roasted corn adds a smoky touch.
-
Let steak rest for a few minutes before slicing to keep it tender and juicy.
-
For extra flavor, add sautéed mushrooms, spinach, or sun-dried tomatoes.
-
Reheat leftovers gently with a splash of cream or milk to restore the sauce’s creaminess.
