📋 Ingredients (Serves 4)

  • 1 lb sirloin steak, cubed (or ribeye for extra richness)
  • 1 (20 oz) pkg cheese ravioli (fresh or frozen)
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional for heat!)
  • Salt & pepper to taste

👨‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

1️⃣ Sear the Steak

  1. Pat steak dry and season with salt & pepper.
  2. Heat 1 tbsp butter + olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Sear steak for 2-3 mins per side until browned. Remove and set aside.

2️⃣ Cook the Ravioli

  1. In the same skillet, add remaining butter and sauté garlic for 30 secs until fragrant.
  2. Pour in beef broth and 1 cup water (if using frozen ravioli).
  3. Add ravioli, cover, and simmer for:
  • Fresh ravioli: 3-4 mins
  • Frozen ravioli: 5-6 mins

3️⃣ Make the Creamy Sauce

  1. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes.
  2. Simmer 2-3 mins until sauce thickens slightly.

4️⃣ Finish & Serve

  1. Return steak to the skillet and toss to coat.
  2. Garnish with extra Parmesan and parsley.

🔥 Pro Tips for Perfection

✅ Don’t overcrowd the pan when searing steak (cook in batches if needed).
✅ Deglaze well: Scrape up those browned bits for maximum flavor!
✅ No heavy cream? Use half-and-half or whole milk + 1 tbsp flour.
✅ Add veggies: Toss in spinach or sun-dried tomatoes at the end.

🍽 Serving Suggestions

  • Pair with: Crispy garlic bread and arugula salad.
  • Wine pairing: Cabernet Sauvignon or Chianti.
  • Leftovers? Reheat with a splash of broth to revive the sauce.
