How to Make All In One Corn And Beef Dish

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat.
  2. Sauté 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 medium chopped onion, and 1 bell pepper (any color), chopped, until the onion is translucent (about 5 minutes).
  3. Add 1 pound ground beef. Brown and crumble, breaking it up with a spoon, until no longer pink (about 8-10 minutes).
  4. Stir in 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 2 cups frozen corn, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon chili powder.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  6. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 60 minutes, or until the flavors have melded and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  7. Meanwhile, cook 1 pound of macaroni according to package directions.
  8. Serve the corn and beef mixture over hot, cooked macaroni in large warmed bowls. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley, if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
