Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 4 medium potatoes, diced
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, corn, carrots)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- Optional: shredded cheese for topping
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender.
- Add the chopped onion and bell pepper to the skillet, and sauté for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the ground beef to the center. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes.
- Once the beef is cooked through, mix it with the vegetables. Add the frozen mixed vegetables, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine and cook for another 5 minutes until everything is heated through.
- Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley. If desired, top with shredded cheese and let it melt before serving.
Notes
For extra crispy potatoes, make sure not to overcrowd the pan and allow them to cook undisturbed for a few minutes at a time. You can substitute the ground beef with ground turkey or chicken for a leaner option. Feel free to customize the vegetables based on what you have available – diced tomatoes, mushrooms, or zucchini work great too.
