  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds ground beef (80/20 blend recommended)
  • 3 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup beef broth or water
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Wash, peel, and dice russet potatoes into uniform 1-inch cubes. Rinse in cold water to remove excess starch, then pat dry.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add potatoes and cook for 8-10 minutes until golden-brown and tender. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same pan, cook ground beef for 5-7 minutes until browned. Drain excess fat if needed.
  4. Push beef to one side, add onion, and cook for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  5. Mix onion and garlic with beef. Add paprika, oregano, salt, black pepper, and tomato paste. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
  6. Pour in beef broth, scrape browned bits, and return potatoes to the pan. Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes.
  7. Taste and adjust seasoning. Garnish with parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Use lean ground beef for lower fat content.
  • Adjust salt and pepper to your preference.
  • Fresh parsley adds color and freshness.
