Ingredients
- 8 oz fettuccine pasta
- 12 oz sirloin or ribeye steak
- 8 oz large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning (divided)
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Olive oil or butter for cooking (optional)
Instructions
- Cook fettuccine pasta in salted boiling water according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Season steak with 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning. In a hot skillet, sear the steak over medium-high heat for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove and let rest, then slice.
- Toss shrimp with remaining Cajun seasoning. Cook in the same skillet for 2 minutes per side until pink and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, pour in heavy cream. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Stir in Parmesan and mozzarella cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
- Add cooked pasta to the sauce and toss until evenly coated.
- Plate the Alfredo pasta, top with sliced steak and shrimp, and serve hot. Garnish with extra Parmesan if desired.
Notes
- Use sirloin, ribeye, or New York strip steak for best results.
- Swap fettuccine for penne, linguine, or pasta of choice.
- Add cayenne or hot sauce to Alfredo for extra spice.
- Smoked paprika in Cajun seasoning adds a smoky depth.
- Half-and-half can be used in place of cream, but sauce will be lighter.
