Recommendations for Making Philly Cheese Steak Pasta Dish
The key to making this recipe is build layers of flavors. I start by cooking the peppers, onions and garlic then move on to the beef. Doing this allows the beef to take on the flavor of the peppers, onion and garlic. In my opinion, there is no better flavor combination!
Now for the best part, specifically, the cheese. You get it from the alfredo sauce, jarred is great or alternatively make your own. Lastly, I topped the entire skillet with thin slices of provolone – it took this easy Philly Cheese Steak recipe over the top.
What Type of Beef is Best?
Traditionalist always use ribeye, well-marbled and tender when cooked. It is ideal. However, you can really use any type of beef, the true key to the success of this dish is the paper thin cut. Most supermarkets and butchers will offer a nice shaved beef to utilize in this dish.
If you plan to shave your own at home, this is a great article to check out.

Expert Tips for Making the Best Philly Cheese steak Pasta
- Pasta: Ideally, a pasta shape that has lots of nooks and crannies for the sauce to grab on to. Campanelle is great and I loved how the steak and peppers would nestle into the folds.
- Peppers: Mix of red and green bell peppers for great color and flavor.
- Beef: Make sure your beef is sliced very thin. In order to ensure that it stays tender when cooking.
- Careful: Don’t over cook the beef. Truky, it is better to take it out of the pan while it’s a little under cooked. Important to realize that it will have time to cook a little more in the sauce.
