For the Tortellini:
- 1 lb 450g cheese tortellini
- 1 tbsp salt for boiling water
For the Cheesesteak Filling:
- 12 oz ribeye steak thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp garlic powder
For the Vegetables:
- 1 small onion thinly sliced
- 1 bell pepper thinly sliced (any color)
- ½ cup mushrooms sliced
- 1 tbsp butter
For the Cheese Sauce:
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup beef broth
- 1 cup provolone cheese shredded
- ½ cup cream cheese softened
- ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
- ½ tsp Dijon mustard
For Garnish (Optional):
- Fresh parsley chopped

Prepare the Steak:
Slice the ribeye steak into thin strips.
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the steak, season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Cook the Vegetables:
In the same skillet, add butter and let it melt.
Sauté the onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms for 5-7 minutes until soft and caramelized. Remove from heat.
Create the Sauce:
In a separate saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.
Slowly add heavy cream and beef broth, stirring continuously.
Add provolone cheese, cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard.
Stir until smooth and creamy.
Combine and Finish:
Add the cooked tortellini, steak, and sautéed vegetables into the cheese sauce.
Toss everything together until well-coated.
Simmer for 2-3 minutes to let the flavors meld.
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
- Substitute ground beef or chicken for the ribeye steak if desired.
- Use store-bought Alfredo sauce for an even quicker version.
