Fried strips of steak, onions and green bell pepper tossed together with pappardelle pasta and a creamy, cheesy sauce.

Ultimately, this is an indulgent dish, so it will be high in fat – but is also delicious and filling.

I like to add in a little garlic and Worcestershire sauce for some extra flavour too.
This is a lovely comforting dinner for the family, but also an easy, impressive dish for date night.

Ingredients:
300 g (10.5oz) dried pappardelle pasta (use tagliatelle/spaghetti/fettuccine if preferred)
2 tbsp neutral oil such as avocado or rapeseed
400 g (14 oz) fillet or ribeye steak sliced into strips around 1cm thick
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 tbsp salted butter
1 onion peeled and thickly sliced
1 green bell pepper thickly sliced
1 clove garlic peeled and minced
240 ml (1 cup) double (heavy) cream
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
100 g (1 packed cup) ready-grated mozzarella cheese (see notes)

To Serve:
black pepper

Instructions
1. Cook the pasta in a large pan of salted boiling water, as per the pack instructions (usually about 10-12 minutes), then drain, reserving 1 cup of the pasta cooking water

2. Meanwhile heat the oil in a large frying pan (skillet) over a high heat, until hot.

3. Add the steak, salt and pepper and fry for 3-4 minutes, until browned. Remove from the pan and place in a bowl.

4. Turn the heat down to medium-high and add the butter to the pan. Once the butter has melted, add the onion and green pepper and for 3 minutes, until starting to soften.

5. Add the garlic and cook, whilst stirring, for a further 30 seconds, then add in the cream and Worcestershire sauce.

6. Allow the sauce to come to a gentle simmer, then add the steak and any resting juices back to the pan. Turn the heat to low.

7. By now the pasta should be cooked and drained. Add the pasta to the pan with vegetables, sauce and steak and toss together. Add splashes of the pasta cooking water if you’d like to loosen the sauce. Give it a taste and add in a little more salt and pepper if needed.

8. Sprinkle over the cheese and stir together until the cheese has melted, then serve topped with a good grind of black pepper.

Notes
Cheese
Provolone cheese is most commonly used for Philly Cheesesteaks. Unfortunately Provolone is very difficult to find in the UK. If you can find it, definitely use it (grate/shred it first).I swap it out for ready grated/shredded mozzarella (which is firmer than the fresh, moist mozzarella balls you buy in liquid). It’s got a similar mild, creamy flavour.You could also use grated Edam or Gouda if preferred.

Best cut of steak for philly cheesesteak pasta:
Ribeye or sirloin or steak are best. You’re looking for a steak with lots of flavour, that can be cooked quickly over a high heat without becoming chewy.

Can I make it ahead and/or freeze it?
I always like to try to include make ahead and/or freezing instructions where possible, but this one just doesn’t taste as good if made ahead. You lose all the juiciness and tenderness of the steak, and it’s just too much of a shame to reheat a nice piece of ribeye. So my advice is to make it right before serving.

A note on the fat content of cream:
I wouldn’t recommend using low fat cream. Any cream under 25% fat will curdle when heated. Whipping cream is an ok replacement for double cream (approx. 35% fat, compared to double/heavy which is approx. 48% fat), but don’t use single cream.
Ultimately, this is an indulgent dish, so it will be high in fat – but is also delicious and filling.
