Ingredients
Meat and Vegetables
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 (4 count) package Philly Sirloin Steaks
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- ½ yellow onion, sliced
- 1 ½ teaspoons Montreal steak seasoning
Pasta and Dairy
- 1 (19 ounce) bag frozen cheese tortellini
- 1 pint heavy cream
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
Instructions
- Heat and Sauté: In a large sauté pan, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Carefully add the Philly sirloin steaks to one side of the pan and the sliced green bell pepper and yellow onion to the other side. Sprinkle 1 ½ teaspoons of Montreal steak seasoning over both the steaks and vegetables.
- Cook Steaks and Veggies: Cook the steaks according to the package instructions while allowing the peppers and onions to cook until crisp tender. Stir occasionally to combine the steaks with the cooked vegetables.
- Add Tortellini and Cream: Add the frozen cheese tortellini and 1 pint of heavy cream to the pan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cover the pan and let simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Melt Cheese and Serve: Once the tortellini is cooked through, sprinkle 1 cup of shredded provolone cheese over the pasta mixture. Replace the lid and let sit just long enough to melt the cheese before serving.
Notes
- Use sliced bell peppers and onions evenly to ensure even cooking.
- Stir frequently during simmering to prevent tortellini from sticking.
- Adjust Montreal steak seasoning quantity to taste or dietary preferences.
- This recipe can be easily doubled for larger families.
