1
Prepare the Ingredients
Dice the ham into small cubes, chop the onion finely, and slice the green bell pepper into thin strips.

2
Sauté the Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and green bell pepper, and sauté for about 5 minutes until they are soft and translucent.
3
Add the Ham
Add the diced ham to the skillet with the sautéed onions and peppers. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the ham is heated through and slightly browned.
4
Season the Mixture
Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika over the ham and vegetable mixture. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

5
Serve Hot
Remove the skillet from the heat and serve the Ranchero hot, either on its own or with a side of rice or tortillas.
