Instructions

Prepare Tortellini: Cook tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Make Alfredo Sauce: In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Stir in cream and bring to a simmer. Add Parmesan cheese and season with salt, pepper, and optional nutmeg. Stir until thickened and creamy. Add cooked tortellini and toss to coat. Keep warm.
Cook Steak Bites: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season steak pieces with salt and pepper. Add steak in a single layer and sear for 2–3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to desired doneness. Remove steak and set aside.
Garlic Butter Sauce: In the same skillet, melt butter and add garlic. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Return steak to the pan and toss in the garlic butter.
Serve: Plate creamy Alfredo tortellini and top with garlic butter steak bites. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

For best results, let steak sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure steak reaches your preferred doneness.
Add a pinch of crushed red pepper to the Alfredo for a little heat.
