Equipment

  • Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound lean ground beef 93/7 lean recommended
  • 1 small yellow onion finely diced
  • 1 medium green bell pepper finely diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced or pressed
  • 2 medium russet potatoes peeled & diced into ½-inch cubes
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon smoked paprika can also use paprika
  • 0.25 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 0.5 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet, over medium-high heat, cook and crumble the ground beef until it's no longer pink and cooked through.
  • Add the diced onion, diced bell pepper, and garlic into the skillet pan and continue cooking, while stirring occasionally, until all the vegetables are softened. About 5 minutes. Drain any excess grease/fat from the skillet pan.
  • Add the diced potatoes, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, paprika, and thyme to the meat mixture in the skillet. Stir to combine.
  • Stir in the beef broth. Cover the skillet pan with a lid and let it simmer, over medium-low heat, for about 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork tender and cooked through. Stir occasionally during the simmer time.
  • Remove the lid and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the beef and potatoes. Cover the skillet again with the lid and let it sit for about 2 minutes to allow the cheese to melt.
  • Remove the skillet pan from the heat and allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

You can also use red potatoes or Yukon yellow potatoes. Cut the potatoes into small cubes to cook evenly.
