Cheesesteak Tortellini in Creamy Provolone Sauce Delight

A delightful twist on classic cheesesteak, combining tender tortellini with a creamy provolone sauce and sautéed steak.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound tortellini (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 pound flank steak (thinly sliced)
  • 1 bell pepper (red or green)
  • 1 small onion
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup provolone cheese
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Slice the flank steak thinly against the grain and chop the bell pepper and onion into bite-size pieces. Mince the garlic.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until soft and fragrant.
  3. Add the sliced flank steak to the skillet, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-6 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  4. Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute, being careful not to burn it.
  5. Pour in the heavy cream, allowing it to simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  6. Lower the heat, gradually add provolone cheese, stirring continuously until melted and smooth.
  7. Stir in the cooked tortellini, coating it with the creamy sauce and heating for about 2 minutes before serving.

Notes

For a lighter version, replace tortellini with zucchini noodles. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
