Ingredients

Directions

  1. Strain the beef tips and reserve the gravy.
  2. In a small bowl, coat the strained beef tips evenly with the rub. Let sit for at least 15 minutes.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear beef tips for 2-3 minutes per side, until a dark crust forms.
  4. Add butter at the last minute of cooking and baste the beef. Remove from heat and set aside.
  5. In the same skillet used for the beef, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
  6. Pour in whiskey and let it reduce for about 1 minute to cook off the alcohol.
  7. Add balsamic vinegar and reserved beef gravy, stirring to combine. Let simmer for 2 minutes.
  8. Reduce heat to low and stir in the alfredo sauce.
  9. Stir in Parmesan cheese until smooth.
  10. Toss the cooked fettuccine in the balsamic whiskey cream sauce.
  11. Plate the pasta and top with coffee-rubbed beef tips.
  12. Garnish with fresh parsley, extra Parmesan cheese, and crushed red pepper flakes if desired.
