Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces cheese tortellini
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- ½ pound thinly sliced steak (such as sirloin or ribeye)
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 1 small green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 small red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- Optional fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Cook tortellini in salted boiling water according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Season steak with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil and quickly sear the steak until browned, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add the butter. Sauté the onions and peppers until softened and lightly caramelized, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a low simmer. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, provolone, and Parmesan. Cook until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened.
- Return the steak and cooked tortellini to the skillet. Toss to coat everything evenly in the sauce and let it heat through for another 2 minutes.
- Serve warm, garnished with parsley if desired.
Notes
- This dish is best served immediately for optimal flavor and texture. <liYou can substitute the steak with chicken or omit it for a vegetarian option. <liFeel free to add other vegetables like mushrooms or spinach.
