Ingredients
Scale
- 2 steaks (ribeye or sirloin), cut into strips
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 oz egg noodles
- 1/4 cup beef broth
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Boil the Noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Cook the egg noodles until al dente (6-8 minutes). Drain and set aside.
- Sear the Steak: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the steak strips with salt and pepper, then cook for 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove and set aside.
- Sauté Garlic: In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium, add butter and garlic, sautéing until fragrant (about 1 minute).
- Make It Saucy: Pour in the beef broth and scrape the browned bits from the skillet; let it simmer for 2 minutes. Add the cooked noodles and steak back into the skillet; toss to combine.
- Cheese It Up: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and heat through for an additional 1-2 minutes before serving.
Notes
Pat the steak strips dry before seasoning for a better sear and use the best butter for flavor. Add sautéed mushrooms or bell peppers for more variation.
