Cowboy Spaghetti 

16 oz spaghetti or linguine

24 oz. sirloin steak

2 tbsp butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/4 cup fresh Parmesan, grated

Montreal Steak Seasoning, to taste

Kosher salt and fresh-ground pepper, to taste

Pinch of red pepper flakes 

Bring the steak to room temperature.

Cook the pasta:

Boil the pasta in heavily salted water (like the ocean) according to package instructions. Drain, but don’t rinse and set aside.

Sear steak:

In a skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Season the steak with the steak seasoning, then sear for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove the steak from the skillet, let rest, then slice into thin strips.

Sauté garlic:

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Make sauce:

Add heavy cream, Parmesan, salt and pepper and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Stir well and let simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Toss noodles:

Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat the in the creamy sauce.

Serve:

Plate the noodles and top with the sliced steak. Serve immediately while warm.
