We were supposed to have salad because you know it was meant to be something light with that whole “I’m trying to eat clean” vibe but then I opened the fridge and saw steak as well as mushrooms that were just about to give me the guilt stare.
So I caved since honestly pasta always wins.

There’s something about that rich creamy mushroom sauce clinging to twirls of pasta while tender bites of steak are nestled in and it just becomes comfort food with a little flair.
I made this I totally overcooked the steak so it turned rubber-band chewy but hey lesson learned and now it’s a go-to whenever we want something hearty yet still a bit fancy,Here’s a pro tip don’t skip the garlic unless you really have to.

How to Make Steak and mushroom pasta

Step 1

The first thing you need to do is cook the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until tender. Drain and set aside. Reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta water for later in case you want to thin the sauce.

Step 2

Second, prepare the steak: While the pasta is cooking, season the steaks with salt, pepper, and a pinch of Italian seasoning. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the steak in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked to your liking. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

Now, let’s cook the mushrooms and onions: In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and butter. Add the chopped onions and cook for 2 minutes until softened. Then add the sliced mushrooms and a pinch of salt. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are golden brown and tender. Add the garlic and sauce: Add the chopped garlic and cook for 1 minute. Pour in the beef broth and stir to remove any brown bits from the pan scrape up any brown bits on the bottom. Then pour in the heavy cream and simmer for two to three minutes.

Step 4

Mix the ingredients: Reduce the heat and add the cooked pasta to the pan. Stir to coat. Add the Parmesan cheese and stir until melted. Return the steak to the pan and mix well. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of the pasta cooking water.

Step 5

Finally, garnish and serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and additional Parmesan cheese, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
