Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 large russet potato, diced into small cubes
- 14.5 ounces canned diced tomatoes (with juices)
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the diced red bell pepper and the diced potato. Cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften slightly.
Add the canned diced tomatoes (with their juices), beef broth, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir everything together until well combined.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
Remove the lid and give the mixture a stir. If the sauce is too thin, let it simmer uncovered for an additional 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top, if using. Let the cheese melt for 1-2 minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot and enjoy your Easy Beef Skillet Supper!
