Tallarin Verde Con Bistec Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Cook the Pasta

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti or linguine and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. 2

   Prepare the Pesto Sauce

   In a food processor, combine fresh basil, Parmesan cheese, pine nuts, garlic cloves, olive oil, salt, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

3. 3

   Cook the Beef Steak

   Season the beef steak with salt and black pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

4. 4

   Combine and Serve

   In a large bowl, toss the cooked pasta with the pesto sauce until well coated. Slice the steak and serve it on top of the pasta. Optionally, garnish with additional Parmesan cheese and fresh basil.
