## Tips

- Marinate the steak overnight for better flavour.
- When cooking the steak, make sure the heat is medium-high heat. Cook for 3-4 mins each side to get a nice sear.
- Lower the heat slightly when adding extra butter, minced garlic and parsley. Mix for 1-2 mins then remove from the heat.
- Make sure the heat is on low when making the cheese sauce. Stir till creamy and the cheese is stringy then turn off the heat and add the macaroni.
