Ingredients
- 1 onion
- 1 1/4 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp cooking oil
- 5 small potatoes
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika
Instructions
- Wash your potatoes. Chop off the stem of the onion and peel it. Slice and chop the onion.
- Add ground beef and onion to skillet. If you are using a nonstick skillet, there is no need to add extra cooking oil, as the ground beef will release fat while it cooks.
- Heat the skillet to high heat and use a spatula to break up the ground beef.
- While the skillet is heating up, you can start to prep the potatoes. Peel and chop them into bite-sized pieces.
- Once the skillet is ready, reduce heat to medium high. Cook ground beef and onions, stirring every minute, until it is cooked through and no longer pink. This will take about 10 minutes total. You can finish chopping the potatoes during this time.
- Once the ground beef and onion mixture is ready, remove it from the skillet and set aside.
- Add a drizzle of oil and the potatoes to the skillet. Cook, stirring every minute, until potatoes are tender- about 20 minutes.
- Add the beef and onion back to the skillet. Top with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Mix to incorporate seasonings.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Then move the dish from the skillet to a serving bowl and it's ready to be enjoyed!
Notes
- Cooking time for potatoes will depend on the level of heat and size of cubed potatoes. You may need to do a taste test to check for tenderness and see if they are cooked to your liking
- Season ground beef and potatoes at the end of the cooking time
- Use any seasonings you like, and adjust seasoning to taste
