Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 4 medium russet potatoes
- 1 large yellow onion
- 3 whole garlic cloves
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Peel the potatoes and cut them into bite-sized cubes (about 1/2-inch). Dice the onion, and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. This should take about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease and transfer the cooked beef to a plate.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the diced onion and minced garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes, until fragrant and soft.
Add the cubed potatoes to the skillet, stirring well to coat them in the onion and garlic mixture. Pour in the beef broth, and add the smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Cover the skillet with a lid and reduce the heat to medium. Cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and most of the broth has been absorbed.
Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet, stirring to combine with the potatoes. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top, cover again, and let it cook for another 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness. Serve hot and enjoy your Easy Hamburger Potato Skillet of Yumminess!
