Instructions
Step 1: Brown the Meat
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the ground meat and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Season with salt, pepper, and your spices (cumin, paprika, chili powder) to bring out those rich flavors.
Step 2: Sauté the Vegetables
- Once the meat is browned, add the onion, garlic, and bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté everything together for about 5 minutes until the veggies are soft and fragrant.
Step 3: Add the Sauce and Simmer
- Stir in the diced tomatoes and beef broth (or chicken broth). Let the mixture simmer for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. The sauce should thicken up slightly.
Step 4: Add the Cheese
- Once the mixture is nice and thick, sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top. Let it melt, covering the meat and vegetables with gooey, cheesy goodness.
Step 5: Garnish and Serve
- Remove from the heat and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro or parsley for a burst of color and freshness.
