Beef and Potatoes

A straightforward, hearty dish featuring succulent ground beef and tender potatoes cooked in a rich broth, perfect for weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 4 medium potatoes, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Optional: chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until it shimmers.
  2. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion turns glossy and fragrant.
  3. Stir in the ground beef, breaking it apart and cooking until browned with a nice sear.
  4. Add the diced potatoes to the skillet, letting their edges lightly brown.
  5. Pour in the beef broth and season with salt, black pepper, and paprika, stirring to combine.
  6. Cover and cook on low heat for about 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and absorb the broth.
  7. Stir occasionally and add more broth if necessary, keeping an eye on the moisture.
  8. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve hot.

Notes

Use lean ground beef for a healthier option. Paprika adds warmth and color, while olive oil aids in sautéing and flavor infusion.
