Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 large bell pepper, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 cup frozen corn kernels
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
- 0.5 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until it's soft and translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and chopped bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the bell pepper starts to soften.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until browned and no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes.
Season the meat mixture with salt, black pepper, cumin, and paprika. Stir well to incorporate the spices.
Add the frozen corn kernels to the skillet and stir until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
Cut the cream cheese into small cubes and add to the skillet. Stir until the cream cheese is melted and fully combined with the beef mixture.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top and mix until the cheese is melted and evenly distributed.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
