Zutaten

Skala
  • 450 g (1 lb) ground beef or thinly sliced steak
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 225 g cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (about 100 g) grated Provolone cheese
  • 340 g pasta (Penne or Rigatoni)
  • 240 ml beef broth
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (optional)
  • 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (optional)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (for serving)
  • Fresh parsley or chives, chopped (for garnish)

Anweisungen

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to package instructions until „al dente.“ Drain and reserve a few tablespoons of cooking water.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the diced bell pepper and onion, and sauté until soft and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic before finishing.
  3. Push the vegetables to one side and increase the heat slightly. Add the ground beef or steak to the skillet and brown it, breaking it into small pieces. Season with salt, pepper, and optional Worcestershire sauce and chili flakes.
  4. Reduce heat to low. Add the softened cream cheese and stir until melted. Pour in the beef broth, stirring until smooth. Mix in grated Provolone until melted and creamy.
  5. Add the drained pasta to the skillet and mix well to coat it with the sauce. If necessary, transfer to a baking dish for broiling.
  6. Optionally, preheat the oven broiler and top with extra Provolone or Parmesan. Broil for 3-5 minutes until bubbling and golden, watching closely to prevent burning.
  7. Remove from the oven, let sit for a minute, and garnish with chopped parsley or chives. Serve immediately.
