Description

A delicious twist on the classic Philly cheesesteak, this dish combines tender cheese tortellini, juicy beef, caramelized onions, and a creamy provolone sauce for a comforting and satisfying meal. Perfect for busy weeknights!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package (12 oz) cheese tortellini
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 1 lb beef steak, cubed (ribeye or sirloin recommended)
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup shredded provolone cheese

Instructions

  1. Cook the tortellini:
    • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Caramelize the onions:
    • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
    • Add sliced onions and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned.
  3. Cook the beef:
    • Add cubed steak to the skillet with the onions. Season with salt and pepper.
    • Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned and cooked through.
  4. Make the sauce:
    • Pour in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well and simmer for 3-4 minutes.
    • Reduce heat to low, then sprinkle in shredded provolone cheese. Stir until melted and smooth.
  5. Combine and serve:
    • Gently fold in the cooked tortellini, coating them evenly with the sauce.
    • Serve immediately, garnished with extra cheese or fresh parsley if desired.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, use ribeye steak or thinly sliced sirloin.
  • If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix 1 tsp cornstarch with 1 tbsp cold water and stir it in while simmering.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days (reheat with a splash of broth to keep the sauce creamy).
