240 ml heavy cream
60 g grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Fresh parsley, finely chopped, for garnish

DIRECTIONS:

Step 01

Cook twisted pasta in abundant boiling salted water according to package directions. Reserve 120 ml of pasta water, then drain and set aside.

While pasta cooks, pat steak cubes dry and season with garlic powder, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak cubes and sear for 3-4 minutes, turning as needed to brown all sides. Remove steak from skillet and keep warm.

Pour in heavy cream, then incorporate Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, and season gently with salt and black pepper. Stir and bring to a gentle simmer; cook for 3-4 minutes. Add grated Parmesan and blend until melted and sauce thickens.

Add cooked pasta to sauce, tossing to coat evenly. If desired, adjust consistency with reserved pasta water.

Step 07

Return cooked steak bites to skillet and mix thoroughly with pasta and sauce until heated through.
