Instructions

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Stir in the diced potatoes, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally.
Once the potatoes are cooked through, taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For a richer flavor, swap beef broth with a mix of broth and a splash of heavy cream.
Want extra crispiness? After cooking, remove the lid and let the potatoes brown for 5 extra minutes.
Try adding shredded cheese on top for a cheesy twist.
