How to Make Hearty TikTok · Grace Gaylord – Recipe You’ll Love

1. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 4 minutes.
2. Add the minced garlic, chopped carrots, and celery; cook for 5 minutes until slightly softened and fragrant.
3. Increase heat to medium-high and add the ground beef or turkey. Cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink, about 7 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and dried thyme while cooking.
4. Stir in tomato paste and diced tomatoes with their juice. Mix well and cook for 3 minutes to deepen the flavors.
5. Add diced potatoes and beef broth, bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender.
6. Stir in frozen peas and cook uncovered for another 5 minutes until peas are heated through and sauce thickens slightly.
7. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Remove from heat and sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top before serving warm.

Tips for the Best Results

• Use fresh vegetables for the best texture, but frozen diced veggies can work in a pinch.
• Don’t skip browning the meat thoroughly—it builds rich flavor in the dish.
• Add the peas last to keep their bright color and slight crunch.
• If you want extra richness, stir in a splash of heavy cream or a pat of butter at the end.
• Serve with crusty bread or over creamy mashed potatoes for a complete meal.

Storage and Reheating

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This hearty TikTok recipe reheats beautifully and tastes even better the next day as flavors meld.

To reheat, warm gently on the stovetop over low heat, stirring occasionally, or microwave in 1-minute increments until hot. For longer storage, freeze in a sealed container for up to 2 months and thaw overnight before reheating.
