Ingredients
Scale
- 20 oz cheese tortellini

Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cheese tortellini and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Season the steak with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and sear for about 3-5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked to your liking. Remove the steak and let it rest.
