Ingredients
- 1 red bell pepper sliced
- 1 green bell pepper sliced
- 8 ounces elbow pasta uncooked
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup diced onions
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- chopped fresh parsley for garnish
- 1 ½ cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
- salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and then add your elbow macaroni. Cook it according to package instructions until it turns al dente then drain the cooked pasta and set it aside.
- In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced red and green peppers and diced onions. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until they are softened. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, brown the ground beef over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon or meat masher as it cooks. Season it with salt and pepper. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Be sure to drain any excess grease.
- Return the sautéed vegetables to the skillet with the ground beef and combine. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
- Pour in the heavy cream and add ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese and ½ cup of mozzarella cheese. Stir to combine. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture starts to thicken.
- Add the cooked and drained pasta to the creamy sauce. Gently stir to combine all the ingredients and then sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of the pasta mixture.
- Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil and let it sit for 2-3 minutes, or until the mozzarella has melted.
- Remove your Easy Philly Cheesesteak Pasta from the heat. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the melted cheese and serve hot.
Notes
- Salt the pasta water: Salting the pasta water enhances the flavor of the pasta and helps the pasta retain some of its texture
- Grate your own cheese: We recommend using freshly grated cheese because it has better-melting properties than pre-shredded cheese.
- Use room temperature heavy cream: This helps prevent curdling when the cream is added to the hot skillet.
- Broil to promote browning: Finish the dish under the broiler for a crispy, golden-brown cheese top.
