Heat olive oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula, and cook until browned. Drain off excess fat if necessary.
Stir in the chopped green bell pepper and diced zucchini, cooking for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the canned diced tomatoes along with their juices, beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet. Let it cook for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and flavors meld together.
Taste the stew and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Before serving, sprinkle the stew with fresh chopped parsley for a burst of color and additional flavor.
Serve hot, optionally garnished with more fresh parsley or a low-carb topping of your choice.
