Philly Cheesesteak Pasta: A Comforting Twist on a Classic
Make the Cheese Sauce:
Pour the beef broth and heavy cream into the skillet with the onions and peppers. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Reduce the heat to low and add the provolone (or mozzarella) and cheddar cheese, stirring until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Combine Everything:
Return the cooked beef to the skillet, stirring to combine it with the sauce and veggies.
Add the cooked pasta, stirring to coat each piece in the creamy cheese sauce. Let it cook for a couple more minutes so the flavors can blend together.
Bake (Optional):
If you want a baked version with a golden, bubbly top, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Transfer the pasta mixture to a baking dish, sprinkle more shredded cheese on top, and bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
Serve:
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.
