1. Cook the fettuccine pasta according to package instructions, opting for whole grain or gluten-free pasta for better digestive health. Drain and set aside.
2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the steak strips with salt, pepper, and half of the Cajun seasoning, using a low-sodium option to support healthy blood pressure. Add the steak to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add the heart-healthy butter substitute, minced garlic (known for boosting immunity), and diced onion. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
4. Pour in the low-fat heavy cream or plant-based cream and bring the mixture to a simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and remaining Cajun seasoning until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
5. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing it in the health-conscious Alfredo sauce until fully coated. Return the cooked steak strips to the skillet and mix well.
6. Garnish with fresh parsley, which is rich in antioxidants, and serve hot.
