Ingredients
Scale
- 12 oz tortellini (fresh or frozen, cheese-filled)
- 1 lb steak (thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin)
- 1 cup bell peppers (sliced, mixed colors)
- 1 medium onion (sliced, yellow or white)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the tortellini according to the package instructions until tender. Drain and set aside.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced steak, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness. Transfer to a plate.
- Add butter to the same skillet. Add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Cook until softened and the onion becomes translucent.
- Add the minced garlic and stir briefly until fragrant.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low. Pour in the heavy cream and stir gently to warm.
- Gradually add the shredded cheddar cheese, stirring until melted and the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.
- Return the cooked steak to the skillet. Add the drained tortellini and gently toss until everything is coated in the sauce.
- Warm briefly over low heat, stirring carefully. Remove from the heat and serve warm.
Notes
- Ribeye provides a richer flavor, while sirloin is a leaner alternative.
- Fresh and frozen tortellini both work; follow the package cooking instructions.
- Keep the heat low when melting the cheddar to help maintain a smooth sauce.
