Can I use a different type of steak? Yes! While ribeye or sirloin is ideal for its tenderness and flavor, you can also use flank steak or skirt steak if those are more readily available. Just be sure to slice them thinly against the grain for the best texture.
Can I make the sauce ahead of time? Yes, the creamy cheese sauce can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. When reheating, you might need to add a splash of milk or cream to restore its smooth texture.
Can I freeze Philly Cheesesteak Pasta? Freezing is not recommended for the pasta as the texture of the cheese sauce can change upon thawing. However, if you need to freeze leftovers, it’s best to store the steak and pasta separately from the sauce and reassemble later.
Can I use a different pasta shape? Absolutely! Feel free to use any type of pasta you prefer. Penne, rigatoni, or even fettuccine would work wonderfully in this recipe.
How can I make it healthier? You can lighten up the dish by using leaner cuts of beef, such as flank steak or round steak, and substituting half of the cream with milk. Additionally, you can use a lower-fat cheese blend to reduce the overall fat content.
Enjoy this delicious and comforting Philly Cheesesteak Pasta for a unique take on a Philly classic!
