Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound cheese tortellini
  • 1 pound ribeye steak thinly sliced or top sirloin, trimmed
  • 1 medium onion sliced
  • 1 large green bell pepper sliced
  • 1 large red bell pepper sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups milk whole preferred
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 4 ounces provolone cheese slices halved
  • 0.5 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Cook tortellini according to package directions in a large pot of salted boiling water. Drain and set aside.
  • While pasta cooks, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced steak, season with salt and pepper, and cook in batches to avoid overcrowding. Sear until browned, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add remaining olive oil and butter to the skillet. Add onions and both bell peppers. Sauté until softened, about 6-7 minutes. Transfer to the plate with the steak.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in the same skillet. Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute to form a roux. Gradually whisk in milk, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  • Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens and bubbles, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low.
  • Stir in Parmesan and mozzarella until melted. Return beef and vegetable mixture to the skillet and stir to combine. Add cooked tortellini and toss gently to coat. Heat through for 2-3 minutes.
  • Top each serving with a half-slice of provolone and broil in oven-safe bowls or dish for 1-2 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Notes

For best flavor, use freshly sliced steak. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop with a splash of milk to restore creaminess.
