Method
 

  1. Step 1: Start by cooking the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  6. Step 6: Add the cooked pasta, shrimp, and sliced ribeye to the skillet. Toss to combine, ensuring everything is coated in the creamy sauce.

Notes

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of cream or water to loosen the sauce if needed.
