Why You’ll Love This Velveeta Steak Fettuccine

The combination of savory steak and gooey Velveeta cream sauce makes this a standout pasta dish. It’s easy enough to whip up after work, yet rich and flavorful enough to serve when guests come over. The garlic butter is gently infused into the cream, giving the sauce a deep, aromatic base that clings to every noodle and steak slice. It’s the kind of meal that feels special with minimal effort.

What Kind of Steak Should I Use?

The beauty of this dish is that it’s flexible. Ribeye gives you rich marbling and flavor, while sirloin or flank steak offers a leaner but still tender bite. The key is to slice the steak thinly against the grain after cooking, so every piece is tender and easy to eat. Just season it well and sear it with love—you’ll be golden.

Ingredients for the Velveeta Steak Fettuccine with Garlic Butter Cream Sauce

This creamy, comforting dish comes together with just a handful of simple, flavorful ingredients. Each component plays a key role in building that luscious, savory flavor that makes this meal irresistible.

• Fettuccine noodles
• Velveeta cheese
• Heavy cream
• Butter
• Garlic cloves
• Steak (ribeye, sirloin, or flank)
• Salt and black pepper
• Olive oil
• Parsley (optional for garnish)

How To Make the Velveeta Steak Fettuccine with Garlic Butter Cream Sauce

Step 1: Prepare the Pasta

Cook the fettuccine noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2: Sear the Steak

Season the steak generously with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak on both sides until it reaches your preferred doneness. Let it rest, then slice thinly against the grain.

Step 3: Make the Garlic Butter Base

In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add butter. Once melted, stir in minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Step 4: Create the Cream Sauce

Pour in the heavy cream and stir, letting it simmer for a couple of minutes. Add cubes of Velveeta cheese, stirring constantly until fully melted into a smooth, creamy sauce.

Step 5: Combine and Serve

Toss the cooked fettuccine in the sauce, coating it well. Add sliced steak on top and garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy the cheesy, buttery goodness.
