Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
  • Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the onion is softened and fragrant.
  • Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and season with salt, pepper, paprika, and dried oregano. Stir to combine.
  • Pour in the beef broth and cover the skillet. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the liquid has mostly absorbed.
  • Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef and potatoes. Cover again and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
  • Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

For an extra burst of flavor, try using different types of cheese like mozzarella or parmesan for variation.
