Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 pound dried penne or rotini pasta
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 4-5 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped parsley or green onions for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Season steak pieces with salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of Cajun seasoning.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over high heat. Sear the steak in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned. Remove steak from pan and set aside.
- Add butter and minced garlic to the same pan. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan (deglaze the pan).
- Add the pasta, remaining Cajun seasoning, and honey to the pan. Stir to combine.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the pasta is cooked al dente and most of the liquid is absorbed. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Stir in the heavy cream and seared steak. Simmer for a few more minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust spice level by adding more Cajun seasoning if desired.
- Garnish with chopped parsley or green onions before serving.
