Method

Preparation of Meats

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ground Beef

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and onion powder. Mix well until all the spices are evenly distributed.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken Thighs

    Season the chicken thighs with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Rub the seasonings into the meat for better flavor absorption.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Bacon

    Chop the bacon slices into small pieces. This will help them cook evenly and integrate into the dish.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Cook the Ground Beef

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the seasoned ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 5

    Cook the Chicken Thighs

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Place the seasoned chicken thighs skin-side down and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F). Remove from the skillet and let rest before slicing.

  3. 6

    Cook the Bacon

    In the same skillet, add the chopped bacon. Cook over medium heat until crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 7

    Sauté the Vegetables

    Using the leftover grease from the bacon, add diced bell pepper and onion to the skillet. Sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Combine All Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the cooked ground beef, sliced chicken thighs, crispy bacon, and sautéed vegetables. Mix thoroughly.

  2. 9

    Add Cheese

    Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the meat mixture and stir until evenly distributed.
