Cheesesteak Tortellini in Creamy Provolone Sauce: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Lina Carter
  • Total Time: 42 minute

Ingredients

– 12 ounces tortellini (fresh or frozen)
– 1 pound ribeye steak or flank steak, thinly sliced
– 1 cup sliced bell peppers (mixed colors)
– 1 cup sliced onions
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 cup provolone cheese, shredded
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your Cheesesteak Tortellini in Creamy Provolone Sauce:

1. Cook the Tortellini: Start by boiling a large pot of salted water. Add the tortellini and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

2. Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, cooking until they soften, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.

3. Cook the Steak: Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the thinly sliced steak. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook until the steak is browned and cooked through, around 4-5 minutes.

4. Combine Ingredients: Once the steak is cooked, stir in the cooked tortellini, mixing well with the vegetables and steak.

5. Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine. Allow the mixture to simmer for 2-3 minutes until it begins to thicken.

6. Add Cheese: Gradually add the shredded provolone cheese, stirring continuously until melted and the sauce is creamy. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of pasta water to reach your desired consistency.

7. Final Seasoning: Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or Italian seasoning as desired.

8. Garnish: Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for added color and flavor.
