   Prepare the Ingredients

   Once water is boiling, add tortellini and cook until al dente, 3-4 minutes. Reserve ½ cup pasta cooking water. Drain tortellini in a colander and set aside. Stem, seed, remove ribs, and cut red bell pepper into ¼"-wide strips. Separate steak strips into a single layer and pat dry. Season all over with a pinch of salt and  pepper.

   Cook the Steak Strips and Peppers

   Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat with 2 tsp. olive oil. Add steak strips to hot pan. Cook undisturbed until starting to brown, 2-3 minutes. Add demi-glace and red bell pepper. Then stir occasionally until browned and steak strips reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 4-6 minutes.
