Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add ground beef, onion, green bell pepper, and red bell pepper. Cook for about 8-10 minutes until browned and vegetables are tender. Drain excess grease.
  2. Add diced potatoes, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and paprika. Stir well to coat the potatoes and distribute evenly.
  3. Pour in beef stock, scraping the skillet to release browned bits. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes until potatoes are tender and liquid mostly absorbed.
  4. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the hash, cover, and let sit on low heat a few minutes to melt cheese.
  5. Spoon portions onto plates while hot. Optional: top with a fried egg before serving.
