Description
This Philly Cheesesteak pasta brings all the iconic flavors of a South Philly classic straight to your family dinner table in a comforting, one-pot-inspired meal. Tender strips of seared steak, caramelized bell peppers, and sweet onions are tossed with perfectly cooked pasta in a velvety, rich cheese sauce.
Ingredients
1.5 lbs Thinly sliced Ribeye or Top Sirloin steak
16 oz Penne, Rotini, or Large Shells
2 large Green and Red Bell Peppers, sliced thinly
1 Yellow Onion, sliced
3 cloves Minced Garlic
2 cups Provolone cheese, shredded
1 cup Heavy Cream
1 cup Low-sodium Beef Broth
To taste Olive Oil, Salt, Black Pepper, and Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Begin by boiling a large pot of salted water. Cook your chosen pasta until it reaches an al dente texture. Reserve about half a cup of the pasta water before draining
- While the water boils, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season your thinly sliced steak with salt and pepper. Sear the meat quickly until browned, then remove it from the pan and set it aside
- In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and bell peppers. Sauté until soft and slightly caramelized. Add minced garlic during the last minute
- Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, scraping the bottom of the pan. Let it reduce by half
- Turn the heat down to medium-low. Stir in heavy cream and whisk in the shredded Provolone cheese until smooth and bubbly
- Toss the cooked pasta and the seared steak back into the skillet, mixing until every noodle is coated in the cheese sauce. Add reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick
Notes
Freeze steak for about 20 minutes before slicing for easier thin cuts.
Do not overcook steak initially as it will continue cooking in the sauce.
Grating your own cheese instead of using pre-shredded for a smoother sauce.
