Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef (or ground turkey/chicken)
• 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
• 1 medium Onion, diced
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 medium Bell pepper, diced
• 2 medium Zucchini, sliced into half moons
• 2 cups Broccoli florets
• 1 cup Carrots, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 2

Add the diced onions and minced garlic, and sauté until the onions are translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 3

Add the ground beef (or chosen meat) to the skillet, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 4

Stir in the diced bell pepper, zucchini, broccoli florets, and sliced carrots. Cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the vegetables to slightly soften.

Step 5

Add the tomato paste, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Mix well to evenly coat the meat and vegetables.

Step 6

Pour in the chicken broth and stir. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and allow it to cook for another 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until the vegetables are tender and the liquids have reduced slightly.

Step 7

Remove from heat and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Step 8

Serve the savory skillet hot, either on its own or over a bed of cauliflower rice for a more filling meal.
