POTATO-TOPPED GROUND BEEF SKILLET



Potato-Topped Ground Beef Skillet image

Compared to other ground beef skillet recipes, the depth of flavor in this recipe is amazing, and I never have leftovers when I take it to potlucks. I love recipes that I can cook and serve in the same skillet. If your butcher has chili grind beef, which is coarsely ground, go for that; it lends an extra meaty texture. -Fay Moreland, Wichita Falls, Texas

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Beef: Select a tender cut of beef, such as sirloin or flank steak, for a quick and easy cooking experience.
  • Tenderize the Beef: For a more tender and flavorful result, consider marinating the beef for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Slice the Beef Thinly: Cutting the beef against the grain into thin strips ensures quick and even cooking.
  • Use a Large Skillet: Opt for a large skillet to accommodate all the ingredients comfortably and prevent overcrowding.
  • Cook the Beef in Batches: If your skillet is not large enough, cook the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding and ensure even cooking.
  • Season Generously: Don't be shy with the seasonings! A combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder typically works well.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Skillet: Avoid overcrowding the skillet with too many ingredients at once, as this can result in uneven cooking and steamed vegetables rather than sautéed.
  • Cook the Vegetables in Stages: Add the vegetables in stages, starting with those that take longer to cook, such as potatoes and carrots, and then adding softer vegetables like bell peppers and mushrooms towards the end.
  • Use a Lid: Covering the skillet helps trap moisture and steam, resulting in tender and flavorful vegetables.
  • Thicken the Sauce, if Desired: For a richer and thicker sauce, consider adding a cornstarch or flour slurry towards the end of cooking.

Conclusion:

This flavorful and hearty beef and potato skillet is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or even as a weekend brunch. With its tender beef, crispy potatoes, and an array of colorful vegetables, this skillet meal is sure to satisfy the whole family. The combination of simple ingredients and easy-to-follow steps makes it an accessible recipe for home cooks of all levels.
