Description

This steak Alfredo recipe is a uniquely rich tweak on standard fettuccine Alfredo. It includes marinated and grilled flat iron steak, herbs, and spinach.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups 2% milk
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
6 jumbo egg yolks
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 1/2 cups Italian-style salad dressing
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 pounds flat iron steak, cut into 3-inch squares
1 pound dry fettuccine pasta
4 cups chopped fresh spinach
4 tablespoons crumbled Gorgonzola cheese, divided
2 tablespoons balsamic glaze
chopped fresh parsley, or as needed

Directions

1 Heat milk and cream in a saucepan over medium heat until simmering, about 5 minutes. Slowly whisk in Parmesan and Romano cheeses. Remove from heat.
2 Whisk egg yolks together in a heat-proof bowl; slowly whisk in about ¼ cup hot cream mixture to temper eggs. Slowly whisk egg yolk mixture into the cream mixture in the saucepan; season with salt and black pepper. Cool Alfredo sauce; refrigerate until needed.
3 Whisk salad dressing, rosemary, and lemon juice together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add steak and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 4 hours.
4 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
5 Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain.
6 Heat 2 cups refrigerated Alfredo sauce in a saucepan over medium heat. Add spinach and 2 tablespoons Gorgonzola cheese.
7 Remove steak from marinade; shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade. Cook on the preheated grill to desired doneness, 5 to 10 minutes.
8 Pour hot Alfredo sauce into a large serving bowl. Add fettuccine; toss to combine. Sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons Gorgonzola cheese on top. Add grilled steak; drizzle with balsamic glaze and garnish with parsley.
