Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak with salt and pepper.

2. Sear steak strips until browned and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

3. Reduce heat to medium. Melt butter in the same skillet, then add garlic and sauté for 1 minute.

4. Pour in the heavy cream, bring to a simmer, and stir in Parmesan cheese until melted.

5. Add tortellini to the sauce and cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally until tender.

6. Return steak to the skillet and mix everything together. Cook another 1–2 minutes to reheat.

7. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.

Notes

Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best flavor and texture.

Don’t overcook the steak; keep it tender with a quick sear.

A splash of broth or milk can help loosen the sauce when reheating.
