Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the penne pasta and cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until al dente. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the flank steak with salt and pepper, then add it to the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until browned. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, then remove from heat.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, grated Parmesan, and Italian seasoning. Mix well until smooth. Gently fold in the fresh spinach and artichoke hearts.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked penne pasta and sautéed steak. Pour in the creamy mixture and toss gently until everything is evenly coated.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Transfer the pasta mixture into the baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes. Serve with a fresh green salad or warm garlic bread.

Notes
You can assemble the dish the night before and store it in the fridge. Just remember to adjust the baking time if baked directly from chilled.
