Step-by-Step Instructions
Getting started with this recipe is as easy as pie! First, I heat about a tablespoon of olive oil in my favorite large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, I toss in the diced onions and garlic, letting them sauté until they’re fragrant and the onions turn translucent. It smells heavenly! After that, I add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with my wooden spoon and cooking until it’s browned. Don’t forget to season it with salt and pepper; this step makes a world of difference in flavor! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
