Ingredients:
- 3-4 ounces dry pasta
- 1 tablespoon dijon-style mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (divided)
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- 1 beef chuck eye steak (or sirloin)
- 1/2 cup mushrooms (sliced)
- 1/2 cup liquid (water or broth)
Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Cook the pasta in 2 quarts of salted boiling water for about 8 minutes or until done. |
| 2 | Season both sides of the steak with salt and pepper, and lightly coat with olive oil to give it a slight shine. |
| 3 | In a shallow pasta dish, combine the remaining olive oil, dijon-style mustard, and honey. |
| 4 | Heat a frying pan (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Place the steak in the pan and cook for 3 1/2 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting the time according to your desired doneness. |
| 5 | Once the steak is cooked to your liking, set it aside to rest. Add the sliced mushrooms and liquid to the hot pan, scraping the cooked bits off the bottom for added flavor. |
| 6 | Drain the cooked pasta and add it to the pan with the mushrooms. Give it a quick stir to combine. |
| 7 | Slice the rested steak into thin strips and add it to the pasta. Toss everything together until evenly coated with the honey mustard mixture. |
| 8 | Serve your Solo Honey Mustard Steak and Pasta alongside a refreshing green salad for a complete meal experience. |
