Philly Cheesesteak Pasta
Philly Cheesesteak Pasta was actually the genius recipe idea of my husband, so I can only take credit here for making his dream dinner dish come true.
I mean…steak and veggies swimming in a cheesy, creamy, decadent pasta sauce has to be one of his BEST ideas ever!
Plus this amazing comfort food meal is all made in ONE pot for easy cleanup.
How to make Philly Cheesesteak Pasta
First boil a pound of pasta according to the package directions in salted water.
You could use any pasta that you prefer, I went with fettuccine because it is my son’s favorite.
Then slice the peppers, onions, and mushrooms and cube 1 1/2 pounds of steak.
Once the pasta is cooked, strain it in a colander and rinse very well with cold water.
This will prevent the pasta from overcooking and becoming mushy while we make the rest of this dish.
Set the same pot that you boiled the pasta in on the stove over medium high heat.
Then add some olive oil, the cubed steak, kosher salt, pepper, and a steak seasoning blend of choice.
Cook the steak for a few minutes and then remove it and set aside.
Next set the same pot back on the stove, but this time over medium heat.
Then add more olive oil along with sliced peppers, onions, mushrooms, kosher salt, pepper, and steak seasoning.
Cook for 7 to 8 minutes and then stir in some garlic and Worcestershire sauce.
Let this simmer for one more minute, then remove the veggies and put them with the steak.
And now, my friends, we will make the rich, cheesy pasta sauce!
Set that same pot over medium heat on the stove and add 2 tablespoons of butter.
Once the butter is melted add 2 1/2 cups of heavy cream or half and half, kosher salt, pepper, and steak seasoning.
Bring that to a boil and then let it simmer for 6 to 7 minutes, stirring a few times.
Finally stir in a cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Add the cooked steak, veggies, and pasta into the pot with the sauce and toss until combined.
Taste for seasoning and add more kosher salt, pepper, and/or steak seasoning if needed.
Philly Cheesesteak Pasta is everything delicious about cheesesteak, but with the added bonus of the cheesy sauce and pasta!
