Directions
Step 1
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until it's soft and translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
Step 2
Add the minced garlic and chopped bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the bell pepper starts to soften.
Step 3
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until browned and no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes.
Step 4
Season the meat mixture with salt, black pepper, cumin, and paprika. Stir well to incorporate the spices.
Step 5
Add the frozen corn kernels to the skillet and stir until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 6
Cut the cream cheese into small cubes and add to the skillet. Stir until the cream cheese is melted and fully combined with the beef mixture.
Step 7
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top and mix until the cheese is melted and evenly distributed.
Step 8
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
