Keto Ground Beef and Peppers Skillet

Ingredients:

Step-By-Step Directions:

1. Sauté the Aromatics: Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, cooking for 3/4 minutes until they are soft, translucent, and fragrant.

2. Brown the Beef: Crumble the ground beef directly into the skillet with the onions and garlic. Cook, breaking the meat apart with a wooden spoon or spatula, until it is completely browned and no pink remains.

3. Season: Add the chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the browned beef. Stir continuously for 1/2 minutes to toast the spices and ensure the meat is evenly coated.

4. Cook the Peppers: Toss the sliced assorted bell peppers into the skillet. Stir them into the seasoned beef mixture and cook for 5/7 minutes, or until the peppers are tender-crisp and have absorbed the savory pan juices.

5. Garnish and Serve: Remove the skillet from the heat. Taste and adjust the seasoning with an extra pinch of salt or pepper if needed. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh minced herbs—such as cilantro or parsley—and serve hot straight from the pan.
