Description
Savor the Flavors of Tex-Mex with This One-Skillet Sensation
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 cup sweet potatoes, cubed (about 2 medium potatoes)
- 2 tablespoon taco seasoning
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup frozen corn
- 1 poblano pepper, seeded and diced
- 1 cup shredded cheese
Instructions
1. In a large nonstick skillet, brown the ground beef and diced onions over medium heat for about 10 minutes, making sure to drain any excess fat.
2. Stir in the minced garlic, cubed sweet potatoes, taco seasoning, water, frozen corn, and diced poblano pepper. Cover the skillet and let it simmer for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender.
3. Once the sweet potatoes are cooked through, remove the lid and continue cooking over medium-low heat for 3-5 minutes to allow any remaining liquid to evaporate.
4. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top of the skillet, then cover briefly to allow the cheese to melt and create a deliciously gooey topping.
5. Finally, garnish your Cheesy Tex-Mex Ground Beef & Sweet Potato Skillet with fresh cilantro, creamy avocado, and a dollop of sour cream, if desired. Dive in and savor the incredible flavors and textures of this one-skillet wonder!
Notes
Optional toppings include fresh cilantro, creamy avocado, and sour cream.
