Try Cheesesteak Tortellini in Provolone Sauce for a creamy, indulgent dinner that combines steak and pasta perfection in one dish!

Ingredients
  

For the Tortellini and Steak:

  • 1 lb 450 g cheese tortellini (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 lb 450 g ribeye steak or sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion thinly sliced
  • 1 bell pepper red, green, or yellow, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

For the Provolone Sauce:

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 cup provolone cheese shredded
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese grated
  • A pinch of nutmeg optional

Instructions
 

Prepare the Tortellini:

  1. Cook the tortellini according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

Cook the Steak and Vegetables:

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak slices with salt and pepper. Cook the steak for 2-3 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, sauté the onions, bell pepper, and garlic until tender and aromatic, about 4-5 minutes.

Make the Provolone Sauce:

  1. In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually add the milk, whisking continuously to prevent lumps.
  2. Once the mixture thickens, stir in provolone and Parmesan cheese. Add a pinch of nutmeg for depth, if desired.

Combine and Serve:

  1. Add the cooked tortellini and steak back into the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the provolone sauce over the mixture and toss gently to coat everything evenly.
  2. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
