Share recipe
Description
Don't be deceived by this simple peppery dish. It has a rich, hardy flavor that makes it a perfect comfort food. Serve with a well-buttered slice of bread.
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons butter
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or more to taste
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 clove garlic, or more to taste, minced
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 2 (15.5 ounce) cans light red kidney beans, undrained
- 1 (15.25 ounce) can sweet corn, undrained
- 1 (15 ounce) can green beans, drained
Directions
- 1. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; simmer, stirring frequently, until butter is browned, fragrant, and foamy, with brown bits in it, 5 to 10 minutes. Add pepper and stir for about 10 seconds. Immediately stir in chopped onion to prevent butter from burning. Add salt and saute, stirring occasionally, until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- 2. Add ground beef. Cook and stir until beef is browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Add undrained kidney beans and undrained corn. Mix and bring liquid to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until liquid cooks down into a sauce that just coats the back of a spoon, 20 to 30 minutes. Add drained beans during the last 5 minutes. Taste and add more salt or pepper as desired.
- 3. Stir well and ladle into bowls.
