Ingredients

• 1 pound Beef tenderloin steaks (cut into medallions)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Gorgonzola cheese (crumbled)
• 2 cups Baby spinach
• 1 cup Grape tomatoes (halved)
• 12 ounces Fettuccine or tagliatelle pasta (cooked al dente)
• 0.25 cup Balsamic vinegar
• 2 teaspoons Sugar
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese (grated, for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Season the steak medallions with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 2

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the steak medallions and sear for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or cook to your desired level of doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside, covering loosely with foil to rest.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to medium. Add butter to the same skillet and melt. Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine.

Step 4

Simmer the cream for 2-3 minutes, then add the gorgonzola cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

In a separate skillet, lightly sauté the baby spinach and grape tomatoes in olive oil for 1-2 minutes, just until the spinach wilts. Remove from heat.

Step 6

To make the balsamic glaze, combine balsamic vinegar and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and reduces by about half. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 7

In a large serving bowl or dish, toss the cooked pasta with the gorgonzola sauce until well coated.

Step 8

Top the pasta with the rested steak medallions, sautéed spinach, and tomatoes.

Step 9

Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the steak and pasta.

Step 10

Garnish with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley before serving.
