Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the ground beef from the skillet using a slotted spoon, leaving the fat in the pan, and set it aside.
Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for about 3 minutes, until it starts to soften.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the diced potatoes and bell peppers to the skillet, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Return the ground beef to the skillet and mix it with the vegetables.
In a small bowl, whisk together the beef broth and tomato paste until smooth. Pour the mixture over the beef and vegetables.
Season with salt, black pepper, paprika, and dried thyme. Stir well to combine.
Reduce heat to a simmer, cover the skillet, and let cook for 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Remove the cover and increase the heat to medium-high to let any excess liquid reduce, cooking for an additional 3-5 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy!
