Easy Ground Beef Recipe (One-Pan)
Cook ground beef with onions, garlic, and simple seasonings for a quick, flavorful meal. Start by heating 1–2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 small diced onion and cook 3–4 minutes until softened. Add 1–1.5 lb (450–680 g) ground beef and cook, breaking it up, until browned (about 7–10 minutes). Drain excess fat if needed. Stir in 2–3 minced garlic cloves, 1–2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1–2 teaspoons paprika (or chili powder), and 1 teaspoon dried oregano (optional). Add 1 cup tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes and 2–3 tablespoons water or broth. Simmer 5–10 minutes until thickened. Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve over rice, pasta, tortillas, or with roasted vegetables.

Optional Variations
For a taco-style version, add 1–2 tablespoons taco seasoning (or cumin + chili powder) and top with shredded cheese, lettuce, and salsa. For a Mediterranean twist, use oregano, a pinch of dried rosemary, and finish with lemon juice and chopped parsley. For meal prep, cool quickly and refrigerate in a sealed container up to 3–4 days; reheat until steaming hot.
