Ingredients

To make this delicious skillet meal, you will need:

• 1 lb beef stew meat (cut into bite-sized cubes)
• 2 medium potatoes (peeled and cut into cubes)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• 1 cup beef broth (or water)
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (for garnish)

Equipment Needed

• Large skillet or frying pan
• Knife and cutting board
• Spoon or spatula for stirring
• Measuring spoons
• Plate for serving

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

1. Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
3. Add the potatoes to the skillet and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they’re golden and crispy on the outside. Once done, remove them from the skillet and set them aside.

Step 2: Cook the Beef

1. In the same skillet, add the cubed beef and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.
2. Brown the beef over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the beef is browned on all sides.

Step 3: Add Beef Broth

1. Pour in the beef broth, stirring to deglaze the skillet and lift any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
2. Let the beef simmer for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the beef to cook through and the broth to reduce slightly.

Step 4: Combine Beef and Potatoes

1. Add the cooked potatoes back into the skillet with the beef.
2. Stir everything together so the potatoes absorb the savory flavors of the beef and broth.
3. Cook for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to combine.

Step 5: Garnish and Serve

1. Once everything is cooked and well combined, remove from heat.
2. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a fresh, vibrant touch.
3. Serve the beef and potato skillet hot, and enjoy!

Tips for a Perfect Beef and Potato Skillet

• For Crispier Potatoes: Let the potatoes sit in the skillet without stirring too much in the first few minutes to get a nice crispy texture.
• Customize with Veggies: You can add other vegetables like bell peppers, carrots, or peas for added color and flavor.
• Enhance the Flavor: For a deeper flavor, add a splash of soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce along with the beef broth.
