  2. Sear Beef: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced beef in a single layer and sear for 2-3 minutes until browned. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Remove from skillet.
  3. Sauté Vegetables: Add sliced onions and bell peppers to the same skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Make Sauce: Add beef broth and Worcestershire sauce to the skillet, scraping up browned bits. Stir in Italian seasoning, then add heavy cream and provolone cheese, mixing until melted and creamy.
  5. Combine: Return beef to the skillet and add drained tortellini. Toss until well coated in sauce. Simmer on low for 1-2 minutes to meld flavors.
  6. Garnish & Serve: Adjust seasoning, then garnish with parsley and red pepper flakes. Serve hot.
