Instructions:
1. Cook the potatoes:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden and tender, about 10–12 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
2. Brown the beef:
In the same skillet, add ground beef, chopped onion, and garlic. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Cook, breaking up the beef with a spoon, until fully browned and fragrant.
3. Combine:
Return the potatoes to the skillet, stirring to combine with the beef mixture. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
4. Add the cheese:
Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the beef and potatoes. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it melt for 2–3 minutes.
5. Serve:
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot. Pair with a simple green salad or steamed veggies for a balanced meal.

🧀 Use sharp cheddar for a punch of flavor, or mix cheeses for extra creaminess.
