Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s get started! First, I heat up a large pot over medium heat and add a couple of tablespoons of olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, I crumble the ground beef into the pot, seasoning it with a little salt and pepper as it browns. I cook that for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is no longer pink. The smell of seasoned beef sizzling away is just heavenly! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
