Ingredients
Scale
Pasta
- 1 package (12 oz) cheese tortellini
Vegetables
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms
Meat and Seasoning
- 1 pound thinly sliced beef steak
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Other Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
Instructions
- Cook Tortellini: Cook the cheese tortellini according to the package directions. Once cooked, drain the pasta and set it aside to prevent overcooking.
- Sauté Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions, green bell peppers, and mushrooms, sautéing them until they become tender and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
- Brown the Beef: Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the thinly sliced beef steak. Cook the beef until browned, stirring occasionally, then season with salt and pepper for flavor.
- Simmer with Broth: Stir in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce into the skillet with the beef and vegetables. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for about 5 minutes, letting the flavors meld and the sauce reduce slightly.
- Combine Pasta: Add the cooked tortellini to the skillet, tossing everything together to evenly coat the pasta with the flavorful sauce and mix well with the beef and vegetables.
- Add Cheese and Melt: Sprinkle the shredded provolone cheese over the top of the skillet contents and cover. Let it cook for a few minutes until the cheese melts completely and becomes gooey.
- Serve: Serve the Philly Cheesesteak Tortellini Pasta hot, optionally garnished with extra provolone cheese for added cheesiness and flavor.
Notes
- Use thinly sliced steak such as ribeye for the most authentic Philly cheesesteak flavor.
- If you prefer, substitute provolone cheese with mozzarella or a cheese blend for different flavor profiles.
- Adding a bit of crushed red pepper flakes can add a spicy kick to the dish.
- For a lower sodium option, reduce or omit the added salt and use low-sodium beef broth and Worcestershire sauce.
- This dish pairs well with a simple green salad or garlic bread for a complete meal.
