    Quick look at recipe

    1. Add all ingredients to a large skillet over medium – high heat.
    2. Stir ground beef taco meat in a pan for 10-15 minutes until it’s completely browned. Add water as needed and simmer until done.

    Detailed recipe steps

    1. Add all the ground beef and vegetables to a large skillet over medium – high heat with olive oil and salt and pepper. I like to arrange the vegetables on one side and the beef on the other to start. Don’t add taco seasoning yet. 
    2. Stir ground beef taco meat in a pan for 10-15 minutes until it’s completely browned. Add taco seasoning according to the package (it usually says to add water which you’ll definitely need at least ¼ cup to ½ cup of). Turn down heat to low and simmer, covered, for a few minutes until water evaporates. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate or bowl. Sprinkle with cilantro and toss to combine.

    What can you serve with taco skillet meat?

    This family style one-pan skillet meal can be served with a few different things, to keep the dinner fresh and not boring. One week make it to serve with tacos (soft or crunchy), over rice in taco bowls, with crispy lettuce wraps, or as a ground beef and veggie topping for salads.

    Meat thermometer recommendations

    Every home chef needs a reliable meat thermometer to cook food perfectly. 

    On Sip Bite Go, you’ll often see me using:

    1. Meater thermometer – a fancy wireless thermometer that connects to a phone app – gifted to me from a Traeger partnership.
    2. ThermoPro digital thermometer – which has a wire that connects the thermometer to a display box outside the oven/grill. 

    It’s like being psychic! The great thing about either of the thermometers above is that I don’t have to take the food out of the oven to know the temperature. 

    How to use ‘em… What I do is stick the digital thermometer in steak, pork, chicken, whatever… Then put the food in the oven, on the smoker, or grill.

    While the meat cooks, it reads the temperature so I know exactly what temp meat is as it’s cooking. Without having to take it out and check. It’s really difficult to overcook food when you know exactly what temp it is inside!

    Are you a foodie, too?

    Hey home chefs, hope that answers all your questions about making this beef taco skillet. In the future I’ll share how to make smoked ground beef for tacos, and details on smoked bacon wrapped meatloaf.

    Other Sip Bite Go community favorite recipes for ground beef and vegetables include this Italian stuffed shells with ground beef, smoked meatballs, and cauliflower meatballs in the slow cooker.

    Hey, I’m Jenna Passaro.

    I develop easy recipes that can transform your kitchen into a restaurant – and you into a true home chef.

      

    Where to start?

    Learn the secrets to smoking tasty Traeger recipes and making pizza at home. And cook amazing tri tip steak dinners.

    Or, fall in love with something new to cook with your air fryer, pellet smoker, BBQ grill, sous vide cooker, and more…

    You’ll notice, I kind of geek out over new cooking trends and tools!

    Instagram me @sipbitego & chef hubs @handmodelpatrick

    My story. Growing up, I didn’t learn to cook.

    (I was actually banned from cooking for years)

    And then in my 20’s I didn’t have to cook because my job as an event planner involved a lot of travel and it was easier to eat out. At the time, I was 100% positive that restaurant food would always taste better than cooking at home, and there was nothing I could do about it.

    Until I fell in love with a chef. He would come over and cook me delicious meals right in my own kitchen. My mind was blown.

    Since then, I’ve been on a mission to figure out easy ways to make restaurant style food at home and share it here on Sip Bite Go.

    Love to eat out and travel? I can totally relate. See my guide on where to eat in Portland, OR.

    Never in a million years did I imagine I’d ditch the 9-5 lifestyle in my late 20’s, move across the country on a whim, start a new life, start a food blog, and write a book.

    But here I am!
