List of Ingredients
1 lb. ground beef
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
8 oz. can tomato sauce
2 tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. cumin
2 Tbsp. olive oil
4 cups hash brown potatoes, thawed
1 large tomato, sliced
1/4 cup chopped green chilies
1-1/2 cups shredded Mexican cheese blend
Recipe
In a large saucepan, cook ground beef with onions and garlic, stirring frequently, until browned; pour off drippings. Add tomato sauce and chili powder; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered for 8-10 minutes or until most of liquid is absorbed, stirring occasionally.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a 10-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat until sizzling. Add potatoes, pressing into one layer. Cook 5 minutes or until bottom is golden brown. Turn with large spatula; continue cooking 4 to 5 minutes or until bottom of potatoes are golden brown, reducing heat if potatoes are browning too quickly. Don't worry if potatoes break apart when you turn them; just pat them back together with the spatula.
Spoon ground beef mixture over potatoes; top with tomatoes, chilies and cheese. Broil 3 to 4 inches from broiler 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted. 6 servings
