Braised Beef Tortelloni Olive Garden Copycat

I had beef short ribs for the showtime time at Olive Garden. They have this wonderful dish called Braised Beef & Tortelloni. It's been at least a few years since I first had this dish and I take wanted to recreate this dish always since. I googled many times over the years for a recipe and even sent Darden Restaurants an email to no avail. I have made beef short ribs at home several times with great results and recently made Red Wine-Braised Short Ribs in a ho-hum cooker. Simply recently though, I decided to drastically modify that America'southward Test Kitchen recipe to recreate Olive Garden'due south Braised Beef and Tortelloni (bigger tortellini) recipe.
The description on the carte du jour includes portobello mushrooms and a basil-marsala foam sauce. Why not make it easy on myself and make information technology in the irksome cooker like the red wine-braised recipe? Later on it was done cooking in the tedious cooker, I removed the beefiness to allow it to rest and strained the sauce from the slow cooker and put it into a fatty separator (my new favorite kitchen tool – the Oxo brand fat separator) and reduced the sauce, added sauteed portobellos and 1/2 cup of heavy cream.
The results? Astonishing! I'k thrilled it out worked! I used store-bought tortelloni and it worked out awesome. This is a dish that may but enter into our regular rotation. My husband isn't as well crazy about tortelloni or tortellini so he had his with fettuccine which was also peachy! Add your favorite garlic breadstuff or buttery rolls and you have Italian comfort food at its best.

Beingness careful with your knife, remove the brusque rib meat from the bone. I stand it upwardly straight so I can get well-nigh of the meat off of the bone.

After microwaving the bones, identify them at the bottom of the slow cooker.

In batches, dark-brown the boneless curt ribs.

Place them on summit of the brusque rib bones in the slow cooker.

Brown the veggies and be sure to scrape the lesser of the pot/pan.

This sauce is layered with flavor!

Pour the sauce over the beef in the dull cooker.

Using a fat separator to remove the fat from a sauce or gravy is much faster than skimming it.
