- 16 oz. top sirloin steak or other cut of beef steak
- 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- 1 small yellow onion thinly sliced
- 1 red bell pepper thinly sliced
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
For the Mac and Cheese
- 1 pound large elbow macaroni
- 4 large eggs
- 12 oz. evaporated milk
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- ½ tsp dry mustard
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded smoked gouda cheese
- 1 cup shredded fontina cheese
- 1 cup shredded Havarti cheese
- 8 oz. cream cheese, cut into 1” cubes
Instructions
For the Steak
- Using a large frying pan (preferably cast iron), add oil and place over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear steaks 2-3 minutes per side to develop a deep brown crust; transfer to cutting board.
- Reduce to medium heat and add onion and pepper, stirring often until slightly soft and browned on edges, about 8-10 minutes; transfer to a mixing bowl.
- Slice steak into thin ½” strips; place steak into bowl with peppers and onions. Add salt, black pepper, oregano and smoked paprika; stir until well combined.
For the Mac and Cheese
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Using a large pot, cook pasta until al dente according to package directions. Rinse, drain and set pasta aside.
- Using a large skillet, add eggs, evaporated milk, soy sauce, dry mustard and garlic powder; whisk until well combined. Place over low heat and cook, stirring often, until warm.
- Add shredded cheeses and cubed cream cheese. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until cheeses have fully melted and created a smooth cheese sauce.
- Stir in cooked pasta and transfer ⅔ of the mixture into a large greased baking dish.
- Add the steak and peppers mixture to the remaining pasta mixture; stir until well combined. Transfer this mixture into the top of the baking pan.
- Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until top begins to turn golden brown.
