  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4-6 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound of sirloin or ribeye steak, sliced thin
  • 12 oz of pasta (penne, rigatoni, or fusilli)
  • 1 cup of buffalo hot sauce
  • 1/4 cup of honey
  • 1 cup of heavy cream
  • 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta in salted boiling water until al dente, then drain and set aside.
  2. Season sliced steak with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat and cook the steak until browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and sauté minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in buffalo hot sauce and honey, simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  4. Add heavy cream and stir to create a creamy, spicy sauce.
  5. Add cooked pasta and sliced steak into the skillet with the sauce. Toss until well coated.
  6. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish, sprinkle evenly with mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.
  7. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden.
  8. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use your preferred type of pasta for the best results.
  • You can substitute chicken if steak is unavailable.
  • Adjust the buffalo hot sauce to control spiciness.
  • For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free pasta.
  • Ensure the cheese is evenly distributed for a perfect melt.
