Hearty Beef and Potato Skillet

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.

Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until the onion softens and becomes translucent.

Stir in the diced potatoes, diced bell pepper, beef broth, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine all ingredients.

Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover the skillet and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.

Remove the lid and increase the heat to medium. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until any remaining liquid has evaporated and the mixture is slightly browned.

Serve hot and enjoy your hearty beef and potato skillet!
