Beef or Pork - Chopped Meat Only

Method

Beef or Pork - Chopped Meat Only

  1. 1

    Prepare meat and aromatics

    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. When shimmering, add the finely chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Brown the meat

    Add the ground beef or pork to the skillet. Break the meat apart with a spatula and cook until evenly browned and no pink remains, about 6-8 minutes. Drain excess fat if desired.

  3. 3

    Season

    Stir in salt, black pepper, paprika, and ground cumin. Mix well to coat the meat evenly with spices.

  4. 4

    Moisture and finish

    Pour in water or stock. Stir to loosen any browned bits from the pan. Simmer uncovered for 3-5 minutes until the liquid reduces slightly and the meat is glossy and well-seasoned. If using optional mix-ins, fold them in during the last 1-2 minutes of cooking.

  5. 5

    Taste and adjust

    Taste and adjust salt or spices as needed. Remove from heat.
