Rigatoni with Seared Flank Steak, Roasted Mushrooms & Pan Jus

This rich, steakhouse-style rigatoni delivers serious luxury with seared flank steak, roasted mushrooms, and a glossy pan sauce that clings to every tube of pasta. Deeply savory and dramatic, it’s a dinner-party kind of pasta made weeknight-practical.

  • Fresh Lemons Bag
    1/2 lemon, juiced $4.99
  • Parsley

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook 8 oz rigatoni until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water and drain.
  2. Pat 10-12 oz flank steak dry, season with salt and pepper, and sear in 1 tablespoon olive oil over high heat for 4 to 5 minutes per side. Rest, then slice thinly across the grain.
  3. In the same skillet, add remaining olive oil and the mushrooms. Cook until deeply browned, about 5 minutes.
  4. Add sliced onion and cook until softened, then stir in garlic for 30 seconds.
  5. Add butter, soy sauce, lemon juice, and a splash of pasta water. Simmer briefly to form a glossy sauce.
  6. Add drained rigatoni and toss to coat. Fold in half the parsley.
  7. Plate the pasta, top with sliced flank steak, and finish with remaining parsley, black pepper, and parmesan if using.

Cook time: 45 minutes

Estimated cost: $15-20

Health notes: Serves 2. Richer and heartier than the seafood option, with bold protein and satisfying depth.

Drink pairing: Go with a medium-bodied red. Syrah is excellent, and Malbec is a strong match too.
