Description
Savory Ground Beef and Potatoes for Cozy Family Dinners
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons Canola Oil
- 4 cups Yukon Gold Potatoes
- 1 pound Ground Beef
- 1 medium Yellow Onion
- 1 medium Red Bell Pepper
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
- 2 tablespoons Ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Liquid Smoke
- 1 tablespoon Dijon Mustard
- 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- ½ teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
- ¼ cup Parsley
Instructions
- Heat a large cast iron skillet over high heat and add canola oil. Allow it to warm up until shimmering, indicating it’s ready.
- Lower the heat to medium-high, add the diced Yukon Gold potatoes with salt, and sauté for about 6 minutes until golden brown and tender.
- Remove potatoes and set aside. Add ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart, and sauté until browned, around 5-7 minutes.
- Push beef to one side and add diced yellow onion. Cook for about 3 minutes until softened, then stir in red bell pepper for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- If excess grease is present, drain it away. Return potatoes to the skillet, mixing gently with beef and vegetables.
- Add Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, liquid smoke, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, garlic powder, oregano, kosher salt, and ground black pepper. Stir and cook for an additional 6-8 minutes.
- Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. Serve garnished with freshly chopped parsley.
Notes
- Substitute canola oil with vegetable or olive oil if desired.
- Use shallot as a milder substitute for yellow onion.
- Green bell pepper can give a more bitter taste.
- Substitute Worcestershire sauce with soy sauce if necessary.
- Replace ketchup with tomato paste for thicker consistency.
- Fresh garlic can substitute garlic powder for more intense taste.
- Adjust kosher salt to taste, with sea salt as an alternative.
