Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, add pasta, and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steak for 3-4 minutes until browned, then remove and let rest.
  3. Sauté diced onion in the same skillet for 2-3 minutes until translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
  4. Reduce heat and stir in heavy cream. Gradually add shredded truffle Gouda and mozzarella, stirring until melted. Season with salt, pepper, and optional red pepper flakes.
  5. Return steak to skillet and toss with sauce. Add cooked pasta and mix until coated.
  6. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Transfer pasta mixture to a greased baking dish and bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes.
  7. Let it rest for a couple of minutes, then garnish with parsley before serving.
