Ingredients
1 pound ground beef
1 pound potatoes, peeled and diced into 1-inch cubes
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 cup beef broth
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
Drain excess fat from the skillet if necessary.
Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and stir to combine with the beef and onions.
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, paprika, dried thyme, and crushed red pepper flakes.
Pour the beef broth over the mixture, cover the skillet with a lid, and reduce the heat to medium-low.
Cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and cooked through.
Remove the lid and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes to allow any remaining liquid to evaporate.
Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the dish before serving.
