Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound penne uncooked
- 1 pound beef steak ribeye or sirloin thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion chopped
- 1 large green bell pepper chopped
- 1 large red bell pepper chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup beef broth low sodium
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 6 slices provolone cheese
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- Cook the penne pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet or dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the steak to the skillet and cook until browned and just cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil. Add the onions and bell peppers and cook, stirring often, until they’re soft and slightly caramelized, about 4-5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the heavy cream, beef broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently. Let the sauce simmer for 3-4 minutes to thicken slightly. Reduce the heat to medium and add the cream cheese and provolone cheese and stir until melted and smooth.
- Add the cooked pasta and steak to the skillet with the creamy sauce. Toss everything together until the pasta and steak is well coated.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.
