Pioneer Woman Steakhouse Pasta Recipes

STEAKHOUSE PASTA

Steps:

• Brush the grill with vegetable oil and preheat to medium high.
• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. When hot, add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Turn the heat off, then add the brandy. Turn the heat back on and cook until the brandy is reduced by half, about 1 minute. Add the diced tomatoes to the skillet with the sugar, crushed red pepper and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Meanwhile, sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt, 1/4 teaspoon each black pepper and lemon pepper and a pinch of kosher salt over one side of the steak.
• Put the steak on the hot grill seasoned-side down and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt, 1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and a pinch salt on the top of the steak and then flip it. Cook it for a further 3 to 4 minutes until medium rare. Remove to a board and rest while the sauce is finished.
• Reduce the heat to low under the sauce. Stir in the fontina and 1 tablespoon of the blue cheese. Stir in the cream and horseradish, then add in a little half-and-half if the sauce is too thick. Cook for a minute or two, tasting and adding more seasonings as needed.
• Meanwhile, cut the steak into 1/2-inch strips.
• At the last minute, add the spinach to the sauce and toss to coat. Drain the pasta and add it to the sauce. Mix everything together.
• Place the steak on top of the pasta. Garnish the dish with basil and the remaining 2 tablespoons blue cheese crumbles. Serve straight from the skillet.

STEAK AND CREAMED GREENS PASTA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fettuccine and cook until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water. Drain the pasta and set aside.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet over a medium-high heat. Add the butter, along with the olive oil. Sprinkle the steaks all over with salt and pepper. When the butter has melted and the oil is hot, place the steaks in the skillet and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove the steaks to a cutting board to rest.
• Add the onion, garlic, tomato paste and red pepper flakes to the skillet, then quickly stir and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the wine and allow to reduce for 30 to 60 seconds, then add the cream. Stir, then add the collards, kale and spinach. Stir and allow the greens to wilt, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the pasta, reserved pasta water and cheese. Toss until everything is coated and the sauce has thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Slice the steak and shingle the slices over the pasta. Drizzle over the steak sauce and sprinkle over the curly parsley. Serve straight from the skillet.
