Ingredients
- 1 pound extra lean ground beef
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 1 medium bell pepper, diced (any color)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium taco seasoning
- 14.5 ounces diced tomatoes, no salt added
- 15 ounces black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 cup frozen corn kernels
- 0.5 cup low-sodium chicken or beef broth
- 0.5 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
- 1 lime lime wedges (optional, for serving)
Directions
Step 1
In a large nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Step 2
Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it into crumbles with a spoon, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat from the skillet if necessary.
Step 3
Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften.
Step 4
Stir in the taco seasoning to coat the beef and vegetables evenly. Cook for 1 minute to enhance the flavors.
Step 5
Add the diced tomatoes (with their juices), black beans, frozen corn, and chicken or beef broth to the skillet. Mix everything well.
Step 6
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces slightly and the flavors meld together.
Step 7
Sprinkle the shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese over the skillet. Cover with a lid and let it sit for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese melts.
Step 8
Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, if desired, and serve hot. Optionally, include lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
