A Ground Beef and Peppers Skillet is a quick and tasty dish that’s packed with flavor. Here’s a simple recipe for you to try:
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp chili powder (optional for some heat)
- 1 tsp cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes (optional for extra moisture)
- Olive oil or cooking oil for sautéing
Instructions:
- Cook the ground beef: In a large skillet, heat a bit of oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Once browned, drain any excess fat.
- Sauté the veggies: Add the diced onions and bell peppers to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they soften (about 5–7 minutes). Add the garlic and cook for another 1–2 minutes.
- Season: Sprinkle in the chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir to coat everything evenly.
- Add tomatoes (optional): If you like a saucy dish, add the diced tomatoes and let everything simmer for 5–10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Serve: Once everything is cooked through and flavorful, taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, and enjoy!
