Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Pasta
Boil a large pot of salted water. Add the bowtie pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Step 2: Sear the Beef
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef, season with salt and pepper, and sear on all sides until browned. Remove and set aside.
Step 3: Sauté the Vegetables
In the same skillet, sauté the onion, garlic, and mushrooms until tender and fragrant. Add the peas and cook for 2 minutes.
Step 4: Prepare the Sauce
Reduce heat to low. Add the Alfredo sauce to the skillet, stirring well to combine and heat through.
Step 5: Combine and Serve
Return the beef to the skillet. Add the cooked pasta and toss gently to coat everything in the Alfredo sauce. Heat through for a few minutes.
Keto and Low-Carb Variations
For a keto or low-carb version, substitute the pasta with zucchini or cauliflower noodles and use a low-carb Alfredo sauce (or make your own with heavy cream, butter, and Parmesan cheese).
