Ingredients
  

2 ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)

Salt and black pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

8 ounces pasta (fettuccine or tagliatelle recommended)

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (oregano, basil, thyme)

1 cup baby spinach

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Steaks: Season both sides of the ribeye steaks generously with salt and black pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

    Cook the Pasta: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve about ½ cup of pasta water, then drain and set aside.

      Sear the Steaks: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting time for your preferred doneness. Once cooked, transfer to a plate and let rest for at least 5 minutes.

        Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Then, add in the heavy cream, stirring to combine.

          Add Cheese and Seasonings: Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, Dijon mustard, and Italian seasoning. Let the sauce simmer and thicken for about 3-5 minutes. If the sauce is too thick, add some reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency.

            Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add the cooked pasta and baby spinach directly into the skillet with the creamy sauce. Toss to coat well and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts and everything is heated through.

              Slice the Steaks: While the pasta is cooking, slice the resting steaks into strips against the grain.

                Serve: Plate the creamy pasta and top with the sliced steak. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for an added pop of flavor and color.
