Ingredients

Scale

Tortellini:

  • 1 package (20 oz) cheese tortellini

Beef and Vegetables:

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lb beef sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

For the Sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • ½ cup shredded provolone cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Tortellini

    Cook Tortellini: Prepare the tortellini according to the package instructions. Once cooked, drain and set aside.

  2. Cook the Beef and Vegetables

    Cook Beef: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced beef sirloin and cook until browned about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
    Cook Vegetables: In the same skillet, add sliced green bell pepper, sliced onion, and minced garlic. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside with the beef.

  3. Make the Provolone Sauce

    Melt Butter: In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
    Make Roux: Whisk in all-purpose flour and cook for about 1 minute to form a roux (thickening agent).
    Add Milk: Gradually pour in the whole milk, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. Stir until the mixture thickens and begins to bubble about 3-4 minutes.
    Add Cheese: Stir in shredded provolone cheese and grated Parmesan cheese. Continue stirring until the cheese melts smoothly into the sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. Combine and Serve

    Combine Ingredients: Add the cooked tortellini, browned beef, and sautéed vegetables into the creamy provolone sauce. Stir gently to combine and coat the ingredients in the sauce.
    Serve: Transfer to a serving dish and enjoy hot. Garnish with fresh parsley or additional Parmesan cheese, if desired.
