Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 1 lb ground beef or turkey

Vegetables

  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 bell peppers, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 medium Yukon gold or red potatoes, diced
  • 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes

Spices & Flavorings

  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Liquids

  • 1 cup beef broth

Garnish

  • Fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prep Your Ingredients: Dice the onions, bell peppers, garlic, and potatoes. Having all ingredients ready before cooking makes the process smoother.
  2. Brown the Meat: In a large skillet or cast-iron pan, cook the ground beef or preferred protein over medium heat until browned and crumbly, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.
  3. Sauté the Veggies: Add onions, bell peppers, and garlic to the pan with the meat. Cook, stirring frequently, until softened and fragrant, about 4 minutes.
  4. Add Potatoes and Spices: Stir in diced potatoes, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Toast the spices with the potatoes for 1-2 minutes to enhance flavor.
  5. Simmer with Liquids: Pour in diced tomatoes and beef broth. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally until potatoes are tender.
  6. Finish and Garnish: Remove from heat, sprinkle fresh parsley or cilantro over the hash, and stir gently before serving warm.

Notes

  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet like cast iron or stainless steel for even cooking.
  • Brown meat in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding and achieve a better sear.
  • Chop all ingredients before starting to save time during cooking.
  • Adjust liquid levels by adding more broth if too dry or cooking uncovered to reduce excess moisture.
  • Let the hash rest a few minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
