Ingredients
- Fettuccine: 250 grams (about 9 ounces)

Instructions
- Prepare the ribeye steak by letting it sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes, then season with salt and pepper.

- In the same skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil, sauté minced garlic for 30 seconds, then add cherry tomatoes and cook for 3-4 minutes.
- Add fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, then season with salt and pepper.
- Combine the cooked fettuccine with the sautéed vegetables, adding reserved pasta water to create a light sauce.
- Plate the fettuccine, top with sliced ribeye steak, and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
Notes
