Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces cheese tortellini (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 pound flank steak (or lean ground beef)
  • 1 cup bell peppers (sliced)
  • 1 cup onions (sliced)
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup provolone cheese (shredded)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large pot of boiling salted water, add the tortellini and cook according to the package instructions (around 3-5 minutes). Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add the flank steak seasoned with salt and pepper, cooking for about 5-7 minutes until browned. Remove from skillet and let rest.
  3. In the same skillet, add sliced bell peppers and onions. Sauté for about 4-5 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
  4. Lower the heat, pour the heavy cream into the skillet, and stir. Slowly add the provolone cheese while stirring until melted and creamy.
  5. Thinly slice the rested flank steak and return it to the skillet along with the cooked tortellini. Gently fold everything together until the tortellini is coated in the sauce.
  6. Plate the dish immediately, garnishing with additional provolone cheese if desired.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding red pepper flakes or substituting the beef with shredded chicken or vegetarian protein. Store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 3 days.
