How to Make Skillet Ground Beef
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced. Saute until the onion is translucent and softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add 1 pound of ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in 1 (10 ounce) can of diced tomatoes and green chilies (Rotel), 1 (15 ounce) can of corn, drained, and 1 (15 ounce) can of kidney beans, rinsed and drained.
- If the mixture seems too dry, stir in 1-2 tablespoons of tomato paste to add richness and moisture.
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Serve hot, optionally topped with shredded cheese, sour cream, or chopped cilantro.
