Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 8 oz tortellini (fresh or frozen)
- 1 lb steak (sirloin or flank, sliced thin)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
- 1 cup spinach
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Parmesan cheese (for serving)
Instructions
Preparation
- Gather all your ingredients to ensure everything is ready when you start cooking. Slice the steak thinly and mince the garlic. Halve the cherry tomatoes and rinse the spinach.
Cooking
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the sliced steak and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes, then remove from skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the halved cherry tomatoes into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
- Introduce the tortellini to the skillet, along with enough water to cook it according to package directions. Stir gently and cook for about 5-7 minutes or until tender.
- Once the tortellini has cooked, stir in the spinach and mix until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
- Return the cooked steak to the skillet and mix everything thoroughly. Allow it to heat through for another minute.
- Serve the Steak Tortellini hot, topped with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
Notes
Consider marinating your steak before cooking for enhanced flavor. Serve immediately for the best textures.
