Here’s a delicious recipe for Philly Cheesesteak Tortellini Pasta that combines the flavors of a classic cheesesteak with the convenience of pasta!

Ingredients

• For the Pasta:
  • 1 lb cheese tortellini (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 lb thinly sliced beef (such as flank steak or sirloin)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup provolone cheese, shredded (or mozzarella)

Instructions

1. Cook the Tortellini:
   • In a large pot, cook the tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté the Vegetables:
   • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and bell pepper, cooking until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Cook the Beef:
   • Push the veggies to the side of the skillet. Add the sliced beef to the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
4. Combine and Simmer:
   • Stir in the beef broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to release any browned bits. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 3-5 minutes.
5. Mix in Tortellini:
   • Add the cooked tortellini to the skillet, stirring to combine everything.
6. Add the Cheese:
   • Sprinkle the shredded provolone cheese over the top. Cover the skillet and let it sit for a couple of minutes until the cheese is melted.
7. Serve:
   • Gently stir to combine the melted cheese into the pasta. Serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

Tips

• For extra flavor, consider adding Worcestershire sauce or a splash of hot sauce to the beef mixture.
• You can also mix in other veggies like mushrooms or spinach for added nutrition.
