Ingredients
Scale
Steak
- 1 pound sirloin steak, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Ravioli and Sauce
- 1 (20 oz) package refrigerated cheese ravioli
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1/4 cup reserved pasta water (if needed)
Garnish
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Cook the ravioli: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cheese ravioli and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain the ravioli and reserve 1/4 cup of the pasta cooking water. Set the ravioli aside.
- Sear the steak: While the ravioli cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the thinly sliced sirloin steak with salt and pepper. Sear the steak slices for 1 to 2 minutes per side until they develop a browned crust but remain tender. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the garlic butter sauce: Reduce the heat to medium and add the unsalted butter to the same skillet. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes, if using. Cook for 30 to 60 seconds until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.
- Toss ravioli in sauce: Add the cooked ravioli to the skillet and gently toss to coat them in the garlic butter sauce. If the mixture feels too thick or dry, add a splash of the reserved pasta water to loosen the sauce.
- Combine steak and garnish: Return the seared steak slices to the skillet and toss everything together to combine. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley over the top. Serve warm right from the skillet for a comforting one-pan dinner.
Notes
- For extra richness, stir in a splash of cream with the garlic butter sauce.
- You can use frozen ravioli; just cook it according to package directions.
- Do not overcook the steak to ensure it stays tender and juicy.
- If you prefer less heat, omit the crushed red pepper flakes.
- Fresh parsley adds a bright, fresh flavor; substitute with basil if desired.
