This zesty dish is packed with flavor. Savory steaks are sous vide and then seared to a crisp finish and served alongside tender asparagus and rigatoni in a rich lemon butter sauce. We love the large tubes of rigatoni, but any pasta can be substituted.

4) Remove pans from Suvie. Remove steaks from packaging and pat dry thoroughly. Heat 2 tsp vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat until just smoking. Add steaks and sear for 1 minute per side or until well browned. Transfer to a cutting board.
