Instructions

1. Prepare the Steak
   .

• Season the thinly sliced steak with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, baking soda and cornstarch
• Add 1 tbsp oil, let stand 15 min
• Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat
• Add the steak to the skillet and cook until browned, about 2–3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

1. Cook the Vegetables
   
   

• In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 Tbsp. oil.
• Sauté the mushrooms, onion, green bell pepper, and red bell pepper for 5–6 minutes, until softened.
• Stir in the chopped garlic and cook for 1 more minute until fragrant.

1. Build the Sauce
   
   

• Add the beef broth and half-and-half to the skillet. Bring to a gentle simmer.
• Stir in the uncooked cavatappi pasta. Cover and cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is al dente.

1. Combine Everything
   
   

• Lower the heat and mix the cooked steak back into the skillet.
• Stir in the shredded provolone cheese until melted and creamy.
• Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

1. Serve

Chef's Tips:

• For extra cheesiness, sprinkle a bit more shredded provolone on top before serving.
• Swap cavatappi with penne or another pasta if preferred.
