Instructions:
1. Cook the Beef and Onions:
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil (if using) and ground beef. Break up the beef as it cooks and stir occasionally.
- After 3-4 minutes, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Continue cooking until the beef is browned and the onions are soft, about 5-7 minutes.
2. Drain Excess Fat:
- If necessary, drain any excess grease from the pan.
3. Season the Beef:
- Add Worcestershire sauce, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme (or oregano), salt, and pepper. Stir everything together until well combined.
- If using, pour in the beef broth for extra moisture and flavor.
4. Simmer for Flavor:
- Lower the heat to medium and simmer for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally to allow the flavors to meld together.
- If desired, add your choice of vegetables (bell peppers, mushrooms) and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
5. Serve and Garnish:
- Remove the skillet from heat.
- Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
