Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Drain any excess grease from the skillet, then return it to the heat.
Add the garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and black pepper to the cooked beef. Stir well to coat evenly.
Pour in the water and stir. Reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes, or until the liquid reduces slightly.
