Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium, diced yellow onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 2 medium, diced into 1/2-inch cubes russet potato
- 2 medium, sliced carrots
- 1 cup frozen green beans
- 14.5 ounces (1 can) diced tomatoes
- 1.5 cups low-sodium beef broth
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella, optional)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease from the skillet.
Add the diced potatoes and sliced carrots to the skillet. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to give them a slight head start on softening.
Stir in the can of diced tomatoes (with their juices), tomato paste, and beef broth. Mix well to combine.
Season with Worcestershire sauce, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together.
Add the frozen green beans to the skillet and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a lid, and let it cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are tender.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt or black pepper, if needed.
Optional: Sprinkle shredded cheese over the skillet in the last 2-3 minutes of cooking, allowing it to melt before serving.
Serve warm directly from the skillet for a cozy and satisfying meal.
