Method
 

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the steak pieces with salt and pepper. Add the steak to the pot and sear for about 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove the steak from the pot and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, add the diced onion and sliced bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion is translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the diced tomatoes (with their juice), beef broth, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, and the uncooked pasta. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  4. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is cooked al dente and the liquid is mostly absorbed.
  5. Return the cooked steak to the pot and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well until the cheese is melted and everything is heated through.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley.
