Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 3 medium russet potatoes
- 1 medium onion
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup (shredded) mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley
Instructions
Wash and peel the potatoes, then dice them into small, evenly-sized cubes (about 1/2 inch).
Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic if not using pre-minced garlic.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes, breaking it up into crumbles as it browns. Once fully cooked, remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside, draining any excess grease if necessary.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Toss in the diced potatoes and onion. Cook over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and slightly golden.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Stir in the cooked ground beef, diced tomatoes (with their juices), tomato paste, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything well until fully combined.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a lid, and let it simmer for 8-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the dish. Cover again and cook for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Serve hot and enjoy!
