Ingredients
- 1 pound fettuccine
- 1 pound rib eye steak, cut into bite-size pieces
- 1/2 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 3 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 small red onion, sliced
- 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 to 4 dashes Worcestershire sauce
- Cayenne or hot sauce, to taste
- 2 scallions, sliced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Cook the fettucine according to the package instructions, then drain and set aside.
- Sprinkle the steak and shrimp with 1 teaspoon each of the Cajun seasoning, along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Heat the butter and olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. When the butter has melted and the oil is hot, add the steak and shrimp and cook until the steak has browned on all sides and the shrimp are opaque and almost cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove the steak and shrimp to a plate with a slotted spoon.
- Add the bell peppers and onion to the same skillet, then sprinkle over the remaining teaspoon Cajun seasoning. Cook until the veggies begin to blacken, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and garlic, then stir gently for an additional 30 seconds. Add the chicken stock and wine, stirring to release all the flavors from the bottom of the skillet. Allow to cook for a couple minutes, then reduce the heat slightly. Add the cream, Worcestershire sauce and hot sauce, then continue to cook until the sauce has started to thicken. Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed.
- Add the steak and shrimp back to the skillet along with any juices left on the plate, then stir. Add the fettuccine and toss to combine.
- Garnish the skillet with the scallions and parsley, then serve and enjoy.

Reviews
The sauce is AMAZING! Perfect amount of heat. I’m not a “well done” steak person and it is inevitable that the steak will turn out that way in this dish, especially if you mix it in the piping hot pan with the rest of the ingredients. Going forward, I’ll double the shrimp and omit the beef.
This was delicious! My husband and I couldn’t get enough of it. Great recipe and easy to make.
This is Fabulous! My hubby is not a big pasta fan so I didn’t know how he would feel about it, but he loves anything spicy so I gave it a try. He gave it 2 thumbs-up and said I could make it anytime I wanted!
Holy Moley guys! This is the real deal; looks and tastes like a high end restaurant plate! The sauce needed a slurry of cornstarch to help thicken it. I would also add extra shrimp! This will be served many times in our house and to guests!
Added a tsp of corn starch to thicken the sauce. The dish tastes high end restaurant quality.
An ordinary night turned into a special one when i served this for dinner! Its special, delectable, and family approved dinner! Thanks muchos Pioneer Woman, i was proud
after to say it’s one of your recipes

This recipe is delicious and has wonderful flavor! Definitely a 5 for flavor. I would’ve liked the sauce to be thicker, though, and to coat the noodles. Next time I’ll probably use a little corn starch to thicken it a bit, and I won’t use the whole pound of fettuccine. I will definitely make this again!
This was excellent! This will be in our dinner rotation from now on! Quick to put together which I appreciate, and the flavor was so good! Truth be told- I didn’t have meat, so subbed portabella mushrooms. Still was fantastic!
Great flavor! I’m not a pepper person, but really did enjoy them in this dish! It’s something different from your normal pasta dish! So so good!
