Total Time:45 minutes
Yield:4 servings
Ingredients
1 pound ground beef
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup barbecue sauce (use your favorite brand or homemade)
4 large potatoes, peeled and sliced thinly
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped green onions for garnish
Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, cooking until browned. Drain any excess fat.
Stir in the barbecue sauce, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
In the prepared baking dish, layer half of the sliced potatoes evenly across the bottom.
Spoon half of the beef mixture over the potatoes, then sprinkle with half of the cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
Repeat the layers with the remaining potatoes, beef mixture, and cheeses.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, allowing the cheese to become golden and bubbly.
Once baked, let the dish cool for a few minutes before garnishing with chopped green onions. Serve warm and enjoy!
