Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Shells

Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Shells made with ground beef, cheddar, bell peppers and onions with a creamy sauce to drizzle over the shells when they’re done.

Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Shells are another version of our favorite Philly Cheese Steak Sloppy Joes with the filling added to jumbo pasta shells and a quick and easy creamy cheese sauce made from the same pan the meat filling was made in.

If you’d like to serve this with a pasta other than jumbo shells you can also use this Philly Cheesesteak Hamburger Helper recipe, its another favorite in this house.

We joke that this blog is half fueled by brown sugar garlic chicken and half by all things Philly Cheesesteaks. With over a dozen Philly recipes you’re in the right place if you love those flavors.

Thinking of some other stuffed shells ideas?

• Pepperoni Pizza stuffed shells with marinara sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella.

Tools Used in the making of these Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Shells:
Jumbo Pasta Shells: Make sure you buy these and not the large ones. Also, husbands may inadvertently think “large” is the right size…not saying mine did that! ?
Worcestershire Sauce: Do not leave this out or sub it for anything else, this is a main flavor component and this brand is my absolute go-to.

Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Shells made with ground beef, cheddar, bell peppers and onions with a creamy sauce to drizzle over the shells when they’re done.

Ingredients:

• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 small yellow onion, diced
• 1 small green bell pepper, diced
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
• 8 ounces cheddar cheese, cut into small cubes (divided)
• 24 jumbo pasta shells, cooked
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 cup milk (I used whole)
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 cup milk

Directions:

1. Add the ground beef to a large cast iron skillet (this browns very well) and brown until a deep brown crust appears before breaking the beef apart.
2. Stir the ground beef and brown until a deep crust appears on about 50 or so percent of the beef.
3. Remove the beef (you can leave the fat) and add the butter and the onions and bell peppers and mushrooms.
4. Let brown for 1-2 minutes before stirring, then let brown for another 1-2 minutes before stirring again.
5. Add the beef back into the pan.
6. Add the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt and black pepper into the pan and stir.
7. Take it off the heat and scoop it into the pasta shells.
8. Top each shell with cubes of cheese (use half the cheese for this).
9. Using the same pan add the beef broth, milk and cornstarch and whisk before turning the heat back on.
10. Add in the rest of the cheddar cheese a little at a time while whisking for 3-5 minutes or until thickened.
11. Pour about half the sauce around the shells.
12. Bake in the oven f0r 10 minutes to melt the cheese.
13. Serve with the remaining sauce.
