Chef's Note

This hearty skillet meal replaces bell peppers with earthy mushrooms and sweet carrots for a delicious flavor profile. The roasted garlic in the mashed potatoes adds depth without overwhelming the dish. For a healthier version, you can substitute ground turkey for the beef, and for extra richness, add a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese on top before serving. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Ingredients
  • 1 pound ground beef

  • 1 medium yellow onion

  • 4 cloves garlic

  • 2 medium carrots

  • 1.5 pounds russet potatoes

  • 3/4 cup beef broth

  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste

  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary

  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 3 tablespoons butter

  • 1/3 cup milk

  • 1/2 cup frozen corn

  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives

  • 1 cups mushrooms

Instructions
  • 1

    Peel and cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Place in a pot with enough cold water to cover by 1 inch. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil.

  • 2

    While water is heating, dice the onion and slice the mushrooms. Peel and dice the carrots. Mince the garlic cloves, reserving 1 clove for the mashed potatoes.

  • 3

    Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, about 5-6 minutes.

  • 4

    Add the diced onion, carrots, and mushrooms to the beef. Cook for 4-5 minutes until vegetables begin to soften.

  • 5

    Add minced garlic (all but 1 clove), dried rosemary, dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper. Stir and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

  • 6

    Stir in tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Add Worcestershire sauce and beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

  • 7

    Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10-12 minutes until sauce thickens and carrots are tender.

  • 8

    Meanwhile, once potatoes are fork-tender (about 15 minutes of boiling), drain well and return to the hot pot.

  • 9

    In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the remaining minced garlic clove with 1 tablespoon of the butter. Microwave for 30 seconds until fragrant.

  • 10

    Add the garlic butter mixture, remaining butter, and 1/3 cup milk to the potatoes. Mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  • 11

    Add frozen corn to the beef mixture and cook for 2 minutes until heated through.

  • 12

    Divide the roasted garlic mashed potatoes among four plates and top with the ground beef mixture.

  • 13

    Garnish with fresh chopped chives and serve immediately.
