Ingredients
Scale
Meat
- 1 pound of thinly sliced beef (such as ribeye or sirloin)
Vegetables
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 1 bell pepper (green or red), diced
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
Liquids and Dairy
- 4 cups of beef broth
- 1 cup of heavy cream
- 1 cup of shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
Seasonings and Oils
- 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
Garnish
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Sauté the Vegetables: In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper and sauté until they are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
- Cook the Beef: Add the thinly sliced beef to the pot, seasoning it with salt and black pepper. Cook until the beef is browned, about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Add the Broth and Simmer: Pour in the beef broth and add the Worcestershire sauce. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it cook for 10 minutes to meld the flavors.
- Stir in the Cream and Cheese: Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and shredded cheese. Continue stirring until the cheese is melted and the soup is creamy, about 3-5 minutes. Adjust seasoning as needed.
- Serve and Garnish: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve hot with crusty bread or a side salad to complete the meal.
Notes
- For a healthier alternative, substitute lean turkey or chicken for the beef.
- Use half-and-half or plant-based cream instead of heavy cream for a lighter soup.
- Opt for low-sodium beef broth to reduce salt content.
- This soup can be paired wonderfully with crusty bread or a crisp side salad for a balanced meal.
