Description
Indulge in the rich, velvety goodness of Creamy Paprika Steak Shells – a comforting classic dish featuring tender steak simmered in a decadent, paprika-infused sauce, served over pasta shells for a satisfying meal.
Ingredients
– 1 lb flank steak, sliced into bite-sized pieces
– 2 tbsp olive oil
– 1 onion, diced
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 tbsp paprika
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 cup beef broth
– 12 oz large pasta shells
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
1. – Season the steak with salt and pepper.
2. – Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and sear on all sides until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.

4. – Pour in the heavy cream and beef broth, and bring the mixture to a simmer. Return the seared steak to the skillet and let the sauce simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the steak is tender and the sauce has thickened.
5. – Meanwhile, cook the pasta shells according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
6. – Add the cooked pasta shells to the skillet with the steak and sauce, and toss to combine.
7. – Serve the Creamy Paprika Steak Shells warm, garnished with chopped parsley.
Notes
– For a spicier dish, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the sauce.
