Combining the savory goodness of beef, sautéed veggies, and cheesy tortellini with a rich, creamy provolone sauce, this dish takes comfort food to the next level.
#### Ingredients:
– 1 lb cheese tortellini
– 1 lb beef sirloin or ribeye, thinly sliced
– 1 green bell pepper, sliced
– 1 onion, sliced
– 2 tbsp olive oil
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 ½ cups shredded provolone cheese
– 1 ¼ cups heavy cream
– ½ tsp black pepper
– Salt, to taste
– Red pepper flakes (optional)
– Fresh parsley for garnish
#### Instructions:
1. **Cook the tortellini**: In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the cheese tortellini according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
2. **Sauté the beef**: In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced beef and season with salt and black pepper. Sear the beef for 2–3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
3. **Cook the veggies**: In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil, bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5–7 minutes.
4. **Prepare the provolone sauce**:
– In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium-low heat.
– Slowly whisk in the shredded provolone until melted and smooth.
– Add black pepper and adjust seasoning with salt as needed. For a spicy kick, sprinkle in some red pepper flakes!
5. **Combine and serve**: Toss the cooked tortellini and sautéed veggies in the creamy provolone sauce. Add the seared beef on top and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy that cheesesteak magic in every bite!
#### Tips:
– You can use pre-cooked or store-bought steak slices to save time.
– For a bolder cheesesteak flavor, add a touch of Worcestershire sauce to the beef while it cooks.
– Serve with a toasted hoagie roll on the side for a true cheesesteak vibe!
