Description
A hearty and delicious skillet meal featuring ground beef and tender potatoes, perfect for family dinners.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 4 medium potatoes, diced (about 4 cups)
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
- Stir in the diced potatoes, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.
- If using, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top during the last 5 minutes of cooking, allowing it to melt.
- Once cooked, remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm.
Notes
- For a healthier version, substitute ground turkey or chicken for the beef.
- Add vegetables like bell peppers, carrots, or peas for extra nutrition and flavor.
