Creating Cheesesteak Tortellini in Creamy Provolone Sauce is straightforward. Here’s how to do it:
1. Cook the Tortellini: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the cheese tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and bell pepper, and sauté until soft, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Cook the Steak: Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the thinly sliced steak. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and just cooked through, about 5 minutes.
4. Add Garlic: Stir the minced garlic into the skillet, incorporating it with the steak and vegetables. Cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
5. Prepare the Sauce: Pour the heavy cream into the skillet, stirring to combine with the meat and vegetables. Allow the mixture to simmer gently.
6. Cheese It Up: Gradually stir in the shredded provolone cheese until melted and cohesive, creating a creamy sauce.
7. Combine Tortellini: Add the cooked tortellini to the skillet, gently folding to incorporate it into the creamy sauce and ensure it is well coated.
8. Taste and Adjust: Taste the dish and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
9. Garnish: Finish with freshly chopped parsley for a bright touch and added flavor.
