1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley or thyme for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add ground beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, sauté diced potatoes, onion, and garlic for about 10 minutes until golden and slightly crispy.
- Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream, stir to combine, and let simmer for 5 minutes.
- Return the cooked beef to the skillet, stir everything together, and simmer for another 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle in cheddar cheese and stir until melted.

Notes
Swap ground beef with ground turkey or sausage for variation.
For extra crisp, broil the finished skillet under high for 2–3 minutes.
Best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers store well for 2–3 days.
