Description

A delightful one-pan meal featuring ground beef and tender potatoes, perfectly balanced for flavor and convenience.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 4 medium potatoes, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup green peas (optional)
  • Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic; sauté until translucent.
  2. Add ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned.
  3. Stir in diced potatoes, salt, pepper, and paprika. Pour in beef broth and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.
  4. If using, add green peas in the last 5 minutes of cooking. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

For a bit of heat, add cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. Substitute ground beef with turkey or chicken for a leaner option. Add other veggies like carrots or bell peppers for added nutrition.
