Ingredients

1 lb beef sirloin or ribeye, thinly sliced

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and black pepper, to taste

2 cloves garlic, minced

20 oz cheese tortellini, refrigerated or frozen

1 cup beef broth

1 cup heavy cream

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon onion powder

0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)

1.5 cups shredded provolone cheese, freshly grated

0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Chopped parsley, for garnish

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced beef, season with salt and pepper, and sear for 2–3 minutes per side. Remove from pan and set aside.

2. In the same skillet, lower heat to medium. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

3. Pour in beef broth, scraping up browned bits for added flavor.

4. Stir in heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Simmer 3–4 minutes.

5. Add tortellini and cook for 6–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender.

6. Lower heat and stir in shredded provolone and Parmesan. Mix until melted and sauce is creamy.

7. Return beef and juices to the skillet. Stir to combine and heat through.

8. Garnish with parsley and serve hot.

Notes

Use freshly shredded provolone for best melt and flavor.

Let seared beef rest before adding back to the sauce for juicier bites.

Add a splash of broth or milk when reheating to restore creaminess.
