Step by Step Method
Step 1
Season the beef chunks with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Bring the oil to medium-high heat in a large skillet and add the beef and brown on all sides.
Step 3
Add the fusilli, 1 1/2 cup water and 1/4 cup pesto and simmer until pasta is just cooked. You may need to add a bit more water to stop the pasta from sticking to pan; add a bit at a time if necessary, you want just a bit of liquid left once cooked.
Step 4
Stir in the remaining ingredients and warm through.
Step 5
Enjoy!
