Garlic Steak Tortellini is a creamy skillet meal made with tender seared steak, cheese-stuffed tortellini, and a rich garlic-parmesan sauce. Perfect for special dinners or weeknight indulgence.
1 lb sirloin or ribeye steak
10–12 oz cheese tortellini (fresh or refrigerated)
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp butter, divided
4–5 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup freshly grated parmesan
Salt, pepper, and paprika, to taste
Fresh parsley or thyme, for garnish
Season steak with salt, pepper, and paprika. Sear in olive oil and 1 tbsp butter over medium-high heat for 3–4 minutes per side. Let rest.
Cook tortellini in salted water according to package. Reserve ¼ cup pasta water, then drain.
In the same skillet, add remaining butter and sauté garlic until fragrant.
Stir in cream and bring to a simmer. Add parmesan and whisk until smooth.
Toss cooked tortellini into the sauce. Slice steak and add on top. Simmer briefly to heat through.
Garnish and serve hot.
