Cook the Meat
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef (or your preferred meat) to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper. Cook until the meat is browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
