Creamy Parmesan Steak Pasta Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Cook and drain pasta as directed on package, adding pea pods for last minute of cooking. Rinse with cold water; drain.
• Meanwhile, mix bell peppers, carrots, basil and cheese in very large (4-quart) bowl. Mix dressing and milk in small bowl with wire whisk. Add dressing mixture, pasta and pea pods to bell pepper mixture; toss to coat.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt generously. Add the pasta and cook until al dente. Strain and allow to cool slightly.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, mascarpone, Dijon and 2 teaspoons salt. Add the pasta, shrimp, Parmesan, peas, peppers and fennel; toss to coat. Fold in the basil and dill. Serve at room temperature or cold.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚. Combine the whole grape tomatoes, red onion chunks, basil and vinegar in a blender. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and blend until almost smooth. Add 1/4 cup olive oil and puree until smooth. Remove 2 tablespoons of the dressing to a small bowl.
• Place each steak half between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound on both sides with the flat side of a meat mallet until 3/4 inch thick. Season with salt and pepper and brush with the reserved 2 tablespoons dressing. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the steak and sear until well browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Transfer to a cutting board to rest.
• Meanwhile, toss the bread chunks with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil on a baking sheet. Bake, tossing once, until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Immediately toss with the grated parmesan; season with salt and pepper.
• Combine the endive, radicchio, romaine, halved grape tomatoes, sliced red onion and croutons in a large bowl; drizzle with the dressing and toss. Divide among plates and top with shaved parmesan. Thinly slice the steak and add to the salads.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente. When cooked, drain, then toss with olive oil, and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the rib-eye on both sides until rosy-pink in the center, 7 to 10 minutes depending on thickness. Remove steak from skillet and cut into bite-size pieces. Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in the skillet, and stir in the garlic and shallots. Cook 5 to 10 seconds until fragrant, then return the steak to the pan and cook for another 5 minutes or to desired doneness. Stir in the soy sauce, and cook a few seconds longer, allowing it to evaporate.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the sun-dried tomato pesto, olives, spinach, basil, parsley, feta cheese and sunflower kernels. Toss with the pasta in a large bowl and serve.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the fusilli and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. When the pasta is done, drain it, cool under cold water, drain again and pat dry. Meanwhile, grill or broil the steak 3 to 4 minutes a side only or until charred on the outside, but rare on the inside. (If you don't like steak rare, substitute chicken) When the steak is done remove it to a plate for later; while resting, rub a cut clove of garlic on both sides.
• In a large mixing bowl combine the mayonnaise, tarragon vinegar, and peppers. Toss the pasta with the ingredients in the mixing bowl
• Portion out the pasta. Cut the steak into thin diagonal strips and pile them in the center of the pasta; garnish with olives.

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the penne, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Rinse with cold water and drain well in a colander set in the sink.
• Whisk together the vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Set aside. Combine pasta, tomatoes, onion, green and red peppers, cucumber, olives, and feta cheese in a large bowl. Pour vinaigrette over the pasta and mix together. Cover and chill for 3 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Cook pasta in a stock pot according to package directions.
• In a saucepan melt the butter over medium heat.
• Add in minced garlic and flour. Cook and whisk until it's combined and starts to thicken.
• Add in cream, chicken broth, salt and pepper.
• Continue to cook and stir until the mixture thickens up. Reduce the heat to low and stir constantly as it thickens.
• Remove pan from heat and add in the Parmesan cheese and parsley. The cheese will begin to melt, so stir until all combined well.
• Drain the cooked pasta. Add the cheese mixture to the hot pasta.
• Stir until mixed together well.
• Sprinkle with additional cheese and parsley for serving.
