Print Recipe

A comforting one-pot pasta meal featuring cheese tortellini in a creamy provolone sauce, enriched with sautéed steak, onions, and bell peppers.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package Cheese Tortellini
  • 1 lb Beef Steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium Onion, sliced
  • 1 cup Bell Peppers, sliced (any color)
  • 1 ½ cups Provolone Cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the tortellini according to package instructions, about 2-4 minutes. Drain and set aside, reserving a cup of pasta water.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and bell peppers, seasoned with salt, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized.
  3. Push veggies to one side and add the sliced steak to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes until browned but still tender.
  4. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Reduce heat to low and pour in heavy cream, stirring to combine. Gradually add shredded provolone cheese, stirring until melted and smooth.
  6. Gently fold in cooked tortellini, adding reserved pasta water for desired consistency. Combine until well-heated and creamy.
  7. Serve immediately in bowls, garnished with more cheese or fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

For a vegetarian version, substitute steak with sautéed mushrooms and zucchini. Adjust the thickness of the sauce with reserved pasta water as needed.
