Description
A hearty and delicious one-skillet meal featuring ground beef, vegetables, cabbage, and melted cheese, perfect for a quick and satisfying dinner.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 yellow onion, chopped
- 1 bell pepper, chopped
- 1 small head of cabbage, cored and chopped
- 1 (14 oz) can diced tomatoes
- 2 tsp Tony Chachere’s creole seasoning (or substitute with salt and preferred seasonings)
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef. Drain excess fat if necessary, but a little remaining fat is fine.
- Add the chopped onion and bell pepper to the beef. Cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
- Stir in the chopped cabbage, diced tomatoes (with juices), and all the seasonings. Mix well to combine.
- Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the skillet, cover again, and cook for a few minutes until the cheese melts.
- Serve hot, either on its own or over rice if desired.
Notes
- Use lean ground beef if you prefer a lighter dish.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
- This dish can be served on its own or over rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.
