Ingredients:

  • 4 beef Sirloin Tip Center Steaks, cut 3/4 inch thick (about 4 ounces each)

  • 8 ounces uncooked whole grain fettuccine
  • 1 jar (26 ounces) pasta sauce with olives
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves, crushed
  • 1/4 cup finely shredded Italian cheese blend or mozzarella cheese
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

Safe Handling Tips:

  • Wash hands with soap and water before cooking and always after touching raw meat.

  • Separate raw meat from other foods.
  • Wash all cutting boards, utensils, and dishes after touching raw meat.
  • Do not reuse marinades used on raw foods.
  • Wash all produce prior to use.
  • Cook beef until temperature reaches 145°F for medium rare steaks and roasts 160°F for ground beef.
  • Refrigerate food promptly.

Cooking:

1. Cook fettuccine according to package directions; drain and keep warm.

2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Place beef steaks in skillet; cook 11 to 13 minutes for medium rare (145°F) doneness, turning occasionally. (Do not overcook.) Remove from skillet; keep warm.

3. Combine pasta sauce and oregano in the same skillet; heat until hot. Return steaks to skillet; turn to coat with sauce. Place steaks on fettuccine; spoon sauce overall. Sprinkle steaks with cheese, allowing cheese to melt. Sprinkle with parsley.

Cook's Tip: You may substitute 1 jar (26 ounces) pasta sauce with olives for one jar (26 ounces) pasta sauce plus 1/4 cup chopped olives.
