Recipe: Copycat Olive Garden Steak Gorgonzola Alfredo

Ingredients:

• For the Steak:
• • 1 lb sirloin steak (or ribeye), cut into strips
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
• For the Alfredo Sauce:
• • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
  • 1/2 tsp dried Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
• For the Pasta:
• • 8 oz fettuccine
  • Fresh spinach (optional, about 2 cups)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
  • Balsamic glaze for drizzling

Directions:

1. Marinate the Steak: Season the steak with balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
2. Cook the Steak: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for 3-4 minutes per side or until it reaches your desired doneness. Set aside.
3. Prepare the Alfredo Sauce: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant (about 1 minute). Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan, and Gorgonzola cheeses, allowing the cheese to melt and the sauce to thicken. Add Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste.
4. Cook the Pasta: Boil fettuccine according to package instructions. If you’re using spinach, toss it into the Alfredo sauce right before combining with the pasta.
5. Combine and Serve: Toss the cooked fettuccine in the Alfredo sauce, ensuring it’s well-coated. Add the steak strips and mix gently. Plate the dish and drizzle with balsamic glaze. Garnish with parsley and serve.
