- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter

- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Instructions
1. Cook the Pasta
- Boil linguine in salted water until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Cook the Steak Bites
- Season steak cubes with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Sear steak bites 2–3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to desired doneness. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, sauté minced garlic 30 seconds until fragrant.
3. Make the Creamy Sauce
- Lower heat, add butter and heavy cream to the skillet.
- Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
- Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired.
4. Combine
- Toss cooked linguine in the creamy sauce until coated.
- Top pasta with garlic steak bites.
5. Serve

Tips
- Use high-quality steak for the best flavor.
- For extra garlic flavor, add roasted garlic to the sauce.
- Can swap linguine for fettuccine or penne.
- For a quicker version, make the sauce while steak cooks in another pan.
I can also give you a one-pan version where the pasta, sauce, and steak cook together for easier cleanup.
