Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 cups diced potatoes
Vegetables:
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 bell pepper, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Seasonings and Cooking Essentials:
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
- Pour 2 tablespoons vegetable oil into a large skillet and heat over medium heat until shimmering.
- Toss chopped onion and bell pepper into the skillet, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until they soften and become translucent.
- Drop minced garlic into the pan and stir for 30-45 seconds until fragrant.
- Crumble 1 pound ground beef into the skillet, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon and cooking for 6-7 minutes until it browns completely.
- Add 2 cups diced potatoes, 1 teaspoon paprika, salt, and pepper to the meat mixture, stirring to combine evenly.
- Lower heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and let the hash simmer for 15-18 minutes until potatoes turn fork-tender.
- Uncover and gently stir the hash every 4-5 minutes to prevent bottom from burning and ensure even cooking.
- Remove from heat when potatoes are soft and golden, checking seasoning and adjusting as needed.
- Scoop the hot hash directly onto serving plates, ensuring a balanced mix of meat and potatoes in each portion.
Notes
- Swap russet potatoes for sweet potatoes to add a different flavor profile and boost nutrition.
- For a crispy texture, avoid stirring the hash too frequently and let the potatoes develop a golden-brown crust.
- Add a sprinkle of shredded cheese on top right before serving for extra richness and depth.
- Make this dish gluten-free by ensuring all your spices and ingredients are certified gluten-free.
