Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 oz cheese tortellini (fresh or frozen)

  • 1.25 lb sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into bite-size pieces

  • Salt & black pepper, to taste

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 (14 oz) can diced tomatoes

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley (plus more for garnish)


Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the tortellini according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

  • Season the steak bites with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steak for 1–2 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.

  • In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté minced garlic until fragrant. Add diced tomatoes and simmer for 3–4 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan, and Italian seasoning until smooth and creamy.

  • Return steak and tortellini to the skillet. Toss gently until everything is coated in the tomato cream sauce.

  • Garnish with parsley and extra Parmesan. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For the best steak flavor, use ribeye or sirloin.

  • Frozen tortellini works well; adjust cooking time as needed.

  • To make it dairy-free, substitute heavy cream with coconut or cashew cream and use a dairy-free Parmesan alternative.

  • For a thicker sauce, simmer a few extra minutes or stir in additional Parmesan.

  • This dish pairs nicely with garlic bread or a fresh green salad.
