Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- In a large oven-safe skillet, cook the ground beef until fully browned, then drain off any excess fat and liquid.
- Add the butter to the skillet, letting it melt completely. Next, mix in Worcestershire sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Stir in the sliced bell peppers and onion, cooking until they begin to soften. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for another 5 minutes.
- Pour in the beef broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Stir in the cavatappi pasta and cook according to the package instructions, about 8 minutes.
- Turn off the heat, then stir in the cream cheese cubes until melted and fully incorporated. Cover the skillet with provolone slices.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden around the edges.
- Serve immediately, optionally garnishing with freshly chopped parsley. Enjoy!
