  3. 3 Whisk salad dressing, rosemary, and lemon juice together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add steak and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 4 hours.
  4. 4 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  5. 5 Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Cook fettuccine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain.
  6. 6 Heat 2 cups refrigerated Alfredo sauce in a saucepan over medium heat. Add spinach and 2 tablespoons Gorgonzola cheese.
  7. 7 Remove steak from marinade; shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade. Cook on the preheated grill to desired doneness, 5 to 10 minutes.
  8. 8 Pour hot Alfredo sauce into a large serving bowl. Add fettuccine; toss to combine. Sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons Gorgonzola cheese on top. Add grilled steak; drizzle with balsamic glaze and garnish with parsley.
