Ground Beef and Potatoes Hash
This 30-minute ground beef potato hash is a quick & easy, yet super flavorful breakfast for dinner recipe! A great way to use ground beef!
Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef Note 1
- 1 ½ teaspoons salt coarse kosher
- 1 ½ teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 3 medium potatoes Note 2
- ½ cup beef broth or water
- 4-6 eggs optional
For serving:
- Chopped fresh parsley or sliced green onion optional
- Hot sauce if desired
- Lettuce optional
Instructions
- In a large skillet, brown ground beef with seasonings, breaking it down with a wooden spoon, 8-10 minutes. Once meat is no longer pink, transfer into a clean bowl.
- Meanwhile, dice potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes.
- In now empty skillet, add potatoes and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. (TIP: don’t stir too much, because you want a nice golden brown skin develop on the outside.)
- Add beef back into the potatoes and pour in water/broth. Stir well and cook for about 8 minutes, or until potatoes are cooked through.
- If adding eggs, make 4-6 shallow wells in the meat and potato mixture. Break eggs into the wells, cover and cook for about 3 minutes, or until eggs are cooked till desired doneness.
- Sprinkle some fresh parsley or sliced green onions. And serve over lettuce and with hot sauce, if desired.
Notes
Note 1: I like to use lean ground beef (90/10). Read the post above to learn more about ground beef labels. You can use higher fat ground beef too, simply drain the fat after browning.
Note 2: Any type of potato works for this hash. Russets, Yukon gold, red or purple, fingerlings, and even sweet potatoes, if you’d like.
