Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add 1 diced onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 4 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Add 1 lb ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook until browned and no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes. Season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.

  3. Step 3

    Stir in 4 chopped tomatoes. Cook until tomatoes soften and release their juices, about 5 minutes, until the mixture is thick and saucy.

  4. Step 4

    Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve hot, optionally garnished with fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley.
