Ingredients
Scale
Meat and Vegetables
- 1 package (4 count) Philly Sirloin Steaks
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- ½ yellow onion, sliced
Seasoning and Oil
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 ½ teaspoons Montreal steak seasoning
Pasta and Dairy
- 1 bag (19 ounces) frozen cheese tortellini
- 1 pint heavy cream
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
Instructions
- Heat the Pan: In a large sauté pan, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil over medium-high heat to prepare for cooking the steaks and vegetables evenly.
- Cook Steaks and Veggies: Add the Philly sirloin steaks to one side of the pan and the sliced green bell pepper and yellow onion to the other. Sprinkle 1 ½ teaspoons Montreal steak seasoning over everything. Cook the steaks according to package instructions and allow the peppers and onions to become crisp-tender. Stir together the steaks and vegetables once cooked.
- Add Tortellini and Cream: Add the frozen cheese tortellini and 1 pint heavy cream to the pan with the steak and veggies. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the tortellini is cooked through.
- Melt the Cheese: Sprinkle 1 cup shredded provolone cheese over the tortellini. Replace the lid and allow the cheese to melt thoroughly. Serve immediately while hot.
Notes
- Use a large sauté pan to accommodate all ingredients and ensure even cooking.
- Stir occasionally during simmering to prevent tortellini from sticking to the pan.
- Adjust the amount of Montreal steak seasoning to taste for more or less spice.
- For a lighter option, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or a lighter cream alternative.
- Serve with a side salad or crusty bread for a complete meal.
