Ingredients

Follow the list below to make sure you have all the ingredients you need for this recipe. The printable recipe card below will have the exact amounts that you'll need, along with the detailed instructions.

• Fettuccine pasta – We prefer fettuccine for this steak alfredo recipe, but you could also use penne or orechiette for it.
• Steak – You can use any kind of steak you prefer, but we recommend looking for one with good marbling like a New York Strip or flat iron steak. We'd also recommend a porterhouse or ribeye steak, or a filet mignon that is melt-in-your-mouth tender.
• Butter – Key ingredient to prepare the delicious sauce!
• Coconut oil – We'll be making the steak in coconut oil, given its high smoke point. But feel free to make it with butter if you prefer.
• Heavy whipping cream – Along with butter, this is what makes the alfredo sauce super rich, creamy and silky!
• Cheese – A combination of freshly grated parmesan and gorgonzola cheese makes the alfredo sauce that much more decadent and pairs great with the flavory sliced steak.
• Sea salt – For the steak seasoning and because we prefer sea salt over table salt.
• Black ground pepper – The other seasoning ingredient you really need to season the steak.

Preparation

This is a quick high-level overview of the steps to make this steak fettuccine alfredo recipe, so make sure you take a look at the recipe card below with the specific instruction details.

1. Season the steaks – Make sure the steaks come to room temperature to ensure they will cook evenly, and then sprinkle and rub salt and pepper on them.
2. Sear the steaks – Preheat a large pan over medium-high heat. Add coconut oil and/or butter to the pan until melted (if using butter). Add the steaks and sear them, while frequently flipping, until desired doneness. Medium-rare is recommended, at around 135° F when tested with a digital meat thermometer.
3. Boil the pasta – At the same time the steaks are cooking, boil your dried fettuccine noodles in water. Cook according to package directions.
4. Prepare the sauce – Add butter, cream, the cheeses, salt and pepper to the pre heated pan or skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes until cheeses are melted and sauce is slightly thickened, while stirring frequently.
5. Add fettuccine to sauce – Add drained fettuccine to the sauce and toss it coat.
6. Serve steaks over pasta – Slice the steaks and serve over fettuccine. You could top it with some more parmesan cheese for added flavor.
