My mouth literally started to water as I watched Ree Drummond, a.k.a. “The Pioneer Woman,” prepare this dish, “Steakhouse Pasta,” on the Food Network Channel. I slightly modified Ree’s recipe in light of the ingredients I had on hand.
The steaks were only $3.69/pound at the grocery store and Richard loves chuck steaks even though I rarely buy them. In the “Wayback Days,” my dad used to buy chuck steak not for a family meal, but for his beloved buddy, Harry, his dog. Harry was spoiled and happy. I had a package of chuck steak in the fridge waiting to be transformed.
The Pioneer Woman was aiming for a steakhouse-like pasta dish, thus the blue cheese, spinach, and horseradish – all steakhouse classics. She uses pappardelle, which is a wide pasta – wider than fettuccine. I had linguine on hand, so that’s what I used. Ree’s recipe calls for crumbled blue cheese. I chose to use freshly grated Parmesan and cream cheese.
I have to admit that this was a simple but delicious dish, with plenty of creamy, cheesy sauce punching up the pasta with a flavorful variety of vegetables, and the grilled steak that goes with it is perfect, even if it was chuck steak, which turned out to be flavorful and tender.

FAQ
Can you eat pasta with steak?
My favorite pasta dishes are our creamy penne pasta, which is amazing with leftover ribeye, and our fettuccine alfredo, which has always been one of my favorite sides to go with steak. Pasta is a necessity for me on some nights, especially if you have leftover steak you want to use up.
