Scale

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 jalapeño, diced
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • ½ cup soy sauce (low sodium optional)

Instructions

Instructions

Step 1:
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.

Step 2:
Add the diced onion, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and jalapeño to the skillet. Sauté for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and their aroma fills the kitchen.

Step 3:
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook until the beef is browned, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. If desired, drain any excess fat for a leaner dish.

Step 4:
Stir in the soy sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure the beef and vegetables are evenly coated in the flavorful sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Step 5:
Serve the beef and pepper mixture over cooked rice for a complete and hearty meal. Garnish with additional black pepper or chopped green onions, if desired.
