Directions
- Sear the Steak Bites: Season the steak cubes with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add steak and sear for 3–4 minutes, turning to brown all sides until tender and golden. Remove steak and set aside.
- Sauté the Shrimp: In the same skillet, melt 1 tbsp butter over medium heat. Add shrimp, minced garlic, smoked paprika, and a pinch of salt. Cook 2–3 minutes per side until shrimp is pink and cooked through. Remove from pan and set aside.
- Cook the Pasta: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti or linguine until al dente. Reserve ¼ cup of pasta water, then drain. Toss pasta with remaining 1 tbsp butter to create a light, buttery base.
- Build the Dish: Return shrimp to the pan with the pasta. Add fresh spinach and roasted red peppers. Toss gently until the spinach wilts and everything is coated in garlic butter sauce. Add reserved pasta water as needed to loosen the sauce.
- Top & Serve: Plate the pasta and shrimp mixture, then arrange seared steak bites on top. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley for garnish. Serve immediately while warm for the best flavor.
