How to make Philly Cheesesteak Hamburger Helper
Step 1: Following the package directions, cook the large elbow macaroni. Drain when done, but do not rinse.
Step 2: To a large cast-iron skillet, cook the ground beef, breaking the meat apart until a deep brown crust appears. Then, stir and cook further until a deep crust appears on the beef to about 50 percent or so.
Step 3: Set the beef aside, leaving the fat in the skillet.
Step 4: In the same skillet, add the butter, onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms. Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes, undisturbed. Then, stir and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes before stirring once more.
Step 5: Return the beef to the pan.
Step 6: Whisk the beef broth and cornstarch in a small cup until well-mixed.
Step 7: Next, add the ketchup to the skillet along with the Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and beef broth/cornstarch mixture. Continue to cook for another 3 to 5 minutes until the mixture is only a little liquid and 75 % of the mixture is above the liquid.
Step 8: To the pan, add the pasta and toss well.
Step 9: Turn the heat off and add the provolone cheese.
Step 10: before serving, top with mozzarella cheese.
