Ingredients
  

2 ribeye steaks

2 salmon fillets

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 tablespoons blackening seasoning (store-bought or homemade)

8 ounces fettuccine pasta

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon butter

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Pasta: Cook fettuccine according to package instructions in a pot of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving about 1/2 cup of pasta water.

    Blacken the Steak and Salmon:

      - Pat the ribeye steaks and salmon fillets dry with paper towels.

        - Rub a thin layer of olive oil over both sides of the meats.

          - Generously coat one side of the steaks and salmon in blackening seasoning.

            Cook the Steak: In a cast-iron skillet, heat over medium-high heat until extremely hot. Place the seasoned side of the steak down in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until blackened and crusted, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes.

              Cook the Salmon: In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil if necessary. Place the salmon fillets seasoned side down and cook for about 3-4 minutes until charred and golden. Carefully flip and cook for another 3 minutes until the salmon is cooked through. Remove from the skillet and let rest.

                Make the Alfredo Sauce: In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Then pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes, then whisk in the Parmesan cheese until smooth and creamy. If the sauce is too thick, gradually add reserved pasta water to reach the desired consistency.

                  Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add the cooked fettuccine to the sauce, tossing until well coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

                    Plate the Dish: Slice the rested steak and place it on one side of a serving plate. On the other side, arrange the blackened salmon. Spoon a generous amount of Alfredo pasta between them.

                      Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the dish for freshness and serve immediately, enjoying the beautiful contrast of flavors!
