Ingredients

Scale

For the Pasta:

  • 12 oz rotini pasta (or your preferred pasta)
  • 1 tbsp salt (for boiling water)

For the Cheesesteak Mixture:

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lb ribeye steak (thinly sliced, or use ground beef as a substitute)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder

Vegetables:

  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 small yellow onion (thinly sliced)
  • 1 green bell pepper (thinly sliced)
  • 1 cup mushrooms (sliced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)

Cheese Sauce:

  • 1 ½ cups beef broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
  • 1 cup provolone cheese (shredded)
  • ½ cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)

For Garnish:

  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese (optional)
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped)

Instructions

  • Cook the Pasta:

    • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
    • Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente.
    • Drain and set aside.
  • Prepare the Steak:

    • Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Add the thinly sliced ribeye steak, season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, and cook for 3-4 minutes until browned.
    • Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • Sauté the Vegetables:

    • In the same skillet, melt 1 tbsp butter over medium heat.
    • Add onions, bell pepper, and mushrooms, and cook for 5-7 minutes until softened.
    • Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
  • Make the Cheese Sauce:

    • Pour in beef broth, heavy cream, and Worcestershire sauce, stirring to combine.
    • If a thicker sauce is desired, dissolve 1 tbsp cornstarch in 2 tbsp of cold water and stir it in.
    • Simmer for 3-5 minutes, then stir in provolone and mozzarella cheese until melted and smooth.
  • Combine Everything:

    • Add the cooked pasta and steak back into the skillet.
    • Stir everything together until the pasta is evenly coated with the cheese sauce.
  • Serve & Garnish:

    • Serve hot, topped with Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley if desired.

Notes

  • Substitutions: Swap ribeye for ground beef or sirloin for a budget-friendly option.
  • Cheese Variations: You can replace provolone with cheddar, Monterey Jack, or American cheese for a different flavor.
  • Make it Spicy: Add red pepper flakes or jalapeños for extra heat.
  • Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free pasta and a cornstarch slurry instead of wheat-based thickeners.
