Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ribeye steak (or thinly sliced beef)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 medium green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 12 ounces pasta of choice (penne or rigatoni recommended)
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1.5 cups provolone cheese, shredded
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Slice the ribeye steak thinly into bite-sized pieces. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak pieces and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Sauté the onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms for 4-5 minutes until they are softened and starting to brown. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the uncooked pasta, beef broth, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low.
Cover the skillet and let the pasta simmer for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente and the liquid has reduced into a creamy sauce.
Add the cooked steak back into the skillet, stirring to combine.
Reduce the heat to low and slowly mix in the provolone cheese and cream cheese until fully melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Serve hot and garnish with additional shredded provolone or chopped parsley, if desired.
