Ingredients

Scale

Meat

  • 1 lb ground beef or steak strips

Vegetables

  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Dairy

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded provolone cheese

Other

  • 12 oz pasta (penne or rigatoni recommended)
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente according to the package instructions, usually about 10-12 minutes. Drain the pasta and set it aside.
  2. Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced green bell pepper, onion, and minced garlic. Sauté for 4-5 minutes or until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.
  3. Cook the Meat: Add the ground beef or steak strips to the skillet with the vegetables. Cook thoroughly, breaking up the beef as necessary, until it’s fully browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Season well with salt and pepper.
  4. Combine Ingredients: Stir the softened cream cheese and beef broth into the skillet containing the meat and vegetables. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the cream cheese melts completely and the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.
  5. Top with Cheese and Broil: Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat it thoroughly with the creamy sauce. Sprinkle the shredded provolone cheese evenly over the top. Place the skillet under a preheated broiler for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown.
  6. Serve: Carefully remove the skillet from the oven and serve the pasta hot. Enjoy this rich, cheesy, and hearty Philly Cheesesteak Pasta immediately.

Notes

  • Use penne or rigatoni pasta for best sauce adherence.
  • For a leaner option, choose ground turkey instead of beef.
  • Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to your taste preference.
  • Watch the pasta closely under the broiler to prevent burning.
  • This dish can be prepared ahead by cooking the sauce and pasta separately; combine and broil just before serving.
