Ingredients
  

  • 20 oz cheese tortellini fresh or refrigerated
  • 1.5 lb sirloin steak cut into bite-size pieces
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • q.s. Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 small onion finely diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 4 oz cream cheese cubed
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • q.s. Chopped parsley for garnish (optional)

Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Large skillet
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Whisk
  • Wooden spoon or spatula
  • Knife and cutting board

Method
 

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add cheese tortellini, and cook until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. Season steak pieces with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. In a skillet, heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat; add steak and sear until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
  3. Reduce heat to medium, add remaining butter to the skillet, then add onion and sauté until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds.
  4. Sprinkle flour over onion mixture, cook for 1 minute, then gradually whisk in beef broth and heavy cream until smooth and thickened. Stir in cream cheese until melted, then add Parmesan and mozzarella, stirring until thick and creamy.
  5. Return seared steak to the skillet along with any juices, add cooked tortellini, and gently toss to coat in the sauce. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve immediately.
