Creating the Ground Beef Zucchini Sweet Potato Skillet can be effortless if you follow these steps:
1. Heat the Skillet: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
2. Cook the Beef: Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Add Onions and Garlic: Once the beef is cooked, stir in the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, until the onions become translucent.
4. Incorporate Sweet Potatoes: Add the diced sweet potatoes to the skillet. Season with paprika, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine.
5. Cook Until Tender: Cover the skillet and let the sweet potatoes cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are tender.
6. Add Zucchini: Once the sweet potatoes are tender, stir in the chopped zucchinis and cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing them to soften.
7. Taste and Adjust: Check seasoning and adjust salt, pepper, or spices according to your preference.
8. Garnish and Serve: Turn off the heat, garnish with fresh parsley or basil, and serve warm!
