A creamy, dairy-free pasta dish featuring succulent steak and fresh peas, cooked in one pan for an elegant weeknight meal.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb sirloin steak (or ribeye)
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/2 tbsp ghee or your favorite cooking oil
  • 1 tbsp ghee (or your favorite cooking oil)
  • 1/2 onion (finely chopped)
  • 4 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 2 cup bone broth (or chicken broth or vegetable broth)
  • 1½ cup almond milk (or any milk)
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 12 oz dry pasta
  • Optional: 1 tbsp arrowroot starch (if needed)
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast (or parmesan, if not dairy-free)
  • 2/3 cup peas (fresh or frozen)
  • Chopped parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Season the steak with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the grill on high heat, or heat ghee in a skillet over high heat on the stove top. Cook steak for 4-6 minutes per side depending on your preferred level of doneness.
  3. Transfer the steak to a cutting board and cover with aluminum foil. Make the pasta while the steak rests.
  4. Heat ghee in a large, wide skillet over medium heat.
  5. Add onion and garlic to the pan and stir cooking for 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent.
  6. Pour in broth, milk, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes. Add the dry pasta and submerge in the liquid.
  7. Turn up the heat to bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer. Cook for 7-12 minutes while stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. The pasta should cook through and the sauce should reduce and thicken.
  8. If the sauce is thin, whisk together arrowroot starch and 1 tbsp of water and stir into the pan.
  9. Stir in nutritional yeast and frozen peas for one minute. Taste to adjust seasoning.
  10. Slice the steak thinly against the grain.
  11. Serve pasta topped with steak and sprinkle with parsley.

Notes

Sear the steak in a very hot pan for best results. Rest the meat under foil for more juicy slices. Use a wide pan for even cooking of pasta.
