Ingredients
Scale
Steak and Seasoning
- 2 strip steaks
- 1 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
- Heath Rile’s Garlic Butter Seasoning, to taste
Vegetables
- 1 sliced onion
- 1 large zucchini, sliced
- 10 oz grape tomatoes
Pasta and Sauce
- 19 oz bag frozen cheese tortellini
- Water, for boiling tortellini
- 1/4 cup Buffalo Wild Wing’s Parmesan Garlic sauce
- Shredded Parmesan cheese, for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Pasta: Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook the frozen cheese tortellini according to package instructions, typically about 3-5 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.
- Cook the Steaks: Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado or olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the strip steaks generously with Heath Rile’s Garlic Butter Seasoning. Sear the steaks for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust time to desired doneness. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate.
- Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and zucchini. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften. Add the grape tomatoes and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes until the tomatoes start to blister.
- Combine and Finish: Add the cooked tortellini back into the skillet with the vegetables. Pour in 1/4 cup of Buffalo Wild Wing’s Parmesan Garlic sauce and stir gently to combine. Slice the rested steaks into thin strips and add them to the skillet. Cook together for 2 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the sauce to warm through.
- Serve: Remove from heat, sprinkle with shredded Parmesan cheese, and serve immediately for a warm, satisfying skillet meal.
Notes
- You can substitute the strip steaks with ribeye or sirloin for a different texture and flavor.
- If you prefer a spicier dish, add red pepper flakes when sautéing the vegetables.
- Use fresh Parmesan cheese rather than pre-grated for better melting and flavor.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated on the stovetop or microwave.
