Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef (85% lean)
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 medium carrot, diced
• 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
• 2 medium russet potato, peeled and diced
• 14.5 ounces canned diced tomatoes (with juice)
• 2 cups beef broth
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, for 5-6 minutes or until browned. Drain any excess fat if needed.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent and aromatic.

Step 4

Stir in the diced carrots, bell pepper, and potatoes. Cook for another 5 minutes to start softening the vegetables.

Step 5

Add the canned diced tomatoes (with their juice), beef broth, paprika, oregano, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 6

Lower the heat to medium-low, cover, and let it cook for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 7

Stir in the frozen peas and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, just until they are heated through.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Step 9

Serve warm and enjoy your comforting ground beef one pot meal!
