Plate the dish while hot.

Garnish with parsley, chives, extra Parmesan, or a pinch of smoked paprika.

Serve immediately with garlic bread or a crisp green salad.

Recipe Tips
Use freshly grated cheese for a smoother sauce.

Sear steak in batches if needed to prevent steaming.

Add mushrooms or spinach for extra nutrition and flavor.

For extra tang, stir in a tablespoon of sour cream or cream cheese.

Storage and Reheating
Refrigerator:
Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

Reheat:
Warm gently on the stovetop with a splash of milk or cream. You can microwave in short bursts, stirring between each.

Freeze:
Freeze the sauce and steak without the pasta for best results. Reheat and toss with fresh pasta.

Variations
Spicy Version:
Add red pepper flakes or use hot paprika for extra heat.

Tomato-Paprika:
Stir in 2 tablespoons of tomato paste after sautéing garlic for a richer red sauce.

Baked Version:
After mixing, transfer to a baking dish. Top with cheese and broil until bubbly and golden.
