Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Base Ingredients

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and diced bell pepper, cooking for another 3-4 minutes until the peppers soften.

  2. 2

    Brown the Beef

    Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until browned and no longer pink, approximately 7-10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Season the Meat

    Once the beef is cooked, drain excess fat if necessary. Stir in chili powder, cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the spices to meld with the meat.

Finishing Touches

  1. 4

    Add Fresh Herbs

    Remove the skillet from heat and stir in chopped fresh cilantro for added flavor.

  2. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    In a serving dish or individual bowls, layer the beef mixture. Top with shredded cheese, sour cream, and chopped green onions.
