Ingredients:
- 8 oz linguine pasta
- 1/2 lb steak (like sirloin or ribeye), sliced into thin strips
- 1/2 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 cup pesto sauce (store-bought or homemade, your choice!)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- Grated Parmesan cheese (for serving)
Instructions:
- Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the linguine according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
2Cook the Steak: While the pasta is cooking, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak strips with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook the steak for about 2-3 minutes per side, until it’s browned and cooked to your liking. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Cook the Shrimp: In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Season the shrimp with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from the skillet and set aside with the steak.
Make the Pesto Sauce: Lower the heat to medium. Add the pesto sauce and heavy cream to the same skillet. Stir well until it’s combined and heated through. It should be creamy and delicious! 😍
Combine Everything: Toss the cooked linguine in the pesto sauce until it’s well-coated. Add the steak and shrimp back into the skillet and mix gently to combine. Make sure everything is covered in that yummy sauce!
Serve It Up: Plate your pasta and sprinkle with some grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor. Serve hot and enjoy your fancy yet super easy dinner! 🍽️✨
