Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium, peeled and diced russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium, diced yellow onion
- 1 medium, diced red bell pepper
- 1 cup (fresh, frozen, or canned) corn kernels
- 1 cup, rinsed and drained black beans
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon (or to taste) salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup, chopped (optional for garnish) fresh cilantro
- 0.5 cup (optional for serving) sour cream
- 1 lime, sliced (optional for serving) lime wedges
Instructions
1. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes, until golden and fork-tender. Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set them aside.
2. In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease, if necessary.
3. Push the ground beef to one side of the skillet and add the diced onion and red bell pepper to the other side. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.
4. Mix the garlic, chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper into the skillet with the beef and vegetables. Stir until the spices are evenly distributed.
5. Add the cooked potatoes back into the skillet along with the corn kernels and black beans. Stir everything together and cook for 5 additional minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
6. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the hash. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt for 2-3 minutes.
7. Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with chopped cilantro, if using.
8. Serve hot with optional toppings like sour cream and lime wedges on the side. Enjoy!
