Ingredients

Scale

1 pound ground beef
4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2-inch cubes
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 cup beef broth
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes.
Season the beef with salt, black pepper, paprika, and dried thyme. Stir to combine.
Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and stir to mix with the beef.
Pour in the beef broth, 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 excess liquid to evaporate.
Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the dish before serving.
