Ingredients

  • 8 ounces penne pasta
  • 1 pound large raw shrimp, deveined, tail removed
  • 1 teaspoon blackened seasoning (for shrimp)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 pound top sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 teaspoon blackened seasoning (for steak)
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick, 57 g) unsalted butter
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced (about 1/2 cup)
  • 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
  • 2 cups (476 g) heavy whipping cream
  • 2 cups (200 g) parmesan cheese, freshly grated
  • 1 tablespoon blackened seasoning (for sauce)
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • parsley, chopped, for garnish

Method

  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add penne and cook al dente according to package directions.

  2. 2

    Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Season the shrimp evenly with 1 teaspoon blackened seasoning.

  4. 4

    Add the vegetable oil to a large 13-inch skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the shrimp and cook for 1-2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and tent to keep warm.

  5. 5

    Season the steak cubes evenly with 1 teaspoon blackened seasoning.

  6. 6

    Increase heat to high. Add the butter to the same skillet and let it start to melt. Place the steak in the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes per side, until browned outside and pink inside. Transfer to the plate with the shrimp and tent to keep warm.

  7. 7

    Reduce heat to medium. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, 3-5 minutes.

  8. 8

    Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.

  9. 9

    Add the heavy cream, 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the reserved pasta water, parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon blackened seasoning, kosher salt, and black pepper. Stir until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens slightly.

  10. 10

    Add the drained penne to the skillet and toss to coat. Add more pasta water as needed to reach the desired consistency.

  11. 11

    Top the pasta with the cooked shrimp and steak.

  12. 12

    Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
