Ingredients
- 1 pound cheese tortellini
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound thinly sliced beef steak (such as sirloin or ribeye)
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 8 ounces sliced mushrooms
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup beef broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 ounces provolone cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Cook the tortellini according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- While the tortellini cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced beef steak and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes. Remove beef from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and green bell pepper. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the mushrooms and minced garlic; cook for another 3-5 minutes until mushrooms are tender.
- Pour in the beef broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring to a simmer.
- Stir in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Reduce heat to low and add the shredded provolone cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
- Return the cooked beef to the skillet. Add the cooked tortellini and toss to coat everything evenly with the provolone sauce.
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Simmer for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese.
Notes
For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce. You can substitute the provolone with mozzarella or white cheddar cheese if preferred. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
