Servings: 4

Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

1 lb sirloin steak
14 oz dry rigatoni pasta
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1/2 tsp salt
black pepper
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp oil
1 tbsp butter
1 sweet onion
3 cloves garlic
1 tsp sugar
7 oz mushrooms, sliced
4 tbsp whiskey
2/3 cups Parmesan cheese
2 tbsp fresh parsley, for garnish

Process

Oil and season both sides of the steak with salt and black pepper. In a frying pan over medium-high heat, add the steak and cook to your desired doneness. Transfer the steak to a plate; cover with foil to rest.
Cook the pasta according to package directions; reserve at least 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
While pasta is cooking, start the sauce. Combine the cream, half a teaspoon salt, black pepper, dijon mustard and balsamic vinegar in a bowl. Stir and set aside.
Heat the oil and butter in a large frying pan. Once the butter is melted, add the onion, garlic, and sugar and cook on a low-medium heat until onions are brown and caramelized.
Add the mushrooms; cook about 4 more minutes until they're also golden brown. Increase the heat a bit, and add in the whisky. Cook about 2 minutes, until the whisky is almost entirely evaporated. Add the cream sauce and heat through. Remove from heat.
Add cheese and parsley; stir to combine. Add the drained pasta to the pan, adding the water to desired consistency (around 1/2 cup).
Slice the steak into strips. Place the pan with pasta back on the stove over medium-low heat. Add the steak to the pasta and gently stir to heat it through. Serve hot.
