Instructions

1
Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and no pink remains at the center, about 7–8 minutes. Drain off all but about 1 tablespoon of fat.
2
Add the onion and green bell pepper to the pot and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and the onion is translucent, about 5–6 minutes.
