Main Ingredients
  • 2 lbs Russet potatoes Diced into 1/2-inch cubes.
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil For roasting.
  • 1 tsp Red paprika seasoning
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 lb Lean ground beef 85/15 ratio.
  • 2 tbsp Taco seasoning
  • 1/4 cup Water
  • 1 cup Shredded yellow cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup Diced tomatoes Bright red Roma tomatoes.
  • 1 cup Shredded romaine lettuce
  • 1/2 cup Sour cream Thick and white.
  • 1/4 cup Fresh green cilantro leaves Chopped.

Equipment

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, red paprika, and salt. Spread in an even layer on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until they are crispy, golden-brown roasted potato cubes.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, breaking it apart, and let sit undisturbed to form dark brown crumbled edges. Drain grease, add taco seasoning and water, and simmer for 3-5 minutes.
  3. In a wide ceramic bowl, lay down the crispy potatoes. Top with the savory beef, then immediately sprinkle shredded yellow cheddar cheese. Frame with shredded romaine lettuce and diced tomatoes. Finish with a mound of sour cream and chopped cilantro.

Notes

Do not crowd the potatoes on the baking sheet to ensure they roast and become crispy.
Store leftover ingredients in separate airtight containers so the potatoes do not get soggy.
