Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb sirloin steak, sliced into thin strips
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup shredded provolone cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 (20-ounce) package cheese tortellini (fresh or refrigerated)
  • ½ teaspoon paprika (optional, for topping)
  • Optional garnish: chopped parsley or extra cheese on top

Instructions

  1. Cook the tortellini: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook cheese tortellini according to package directions, then drain and set aside.
  2. Sear the steak: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced sirloin, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned on all sides (3–4 minutes). Remove and set aside.
  3. Sauté vegetables: In the same skillet, melt butter and add onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, and garlic. Cook 5–6 minutes until softened.
  4. Make the cheese sauce: Reduce heat to medium-low. Pour in heavy cream, scraping up browned bits. Gradually add mozzarella, provolone, and half the Parmesan, stirring until smooth and creamy.
  5. Combine everything: Add cooked steak and tortellini back to the skillet. Toss gently until coated in sauce.
  6. Bake until golden: Transfer mixture to a greased 9×13-inch casserole dish. Sprinkle remaining Parmesan and paprika on top. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15–20 minutes, until golden and bubbling.
  7. Serve and enjoy: Garnish with parsley or extra cheese and serve hot.

Notes

  • Slice steak thinly against the grain for tender bites.
  • Use fresh tortellini for best texture and faster cooking.
  • Don’t overcook pasta — it continues baking in the oven.
  • Broil for 2 minutes at the end for a golden, bubbly top.
  • Add extra mozzarella before baking for a cheesier finish.
