Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 2–3 tablespoons Slow Noon (Chili Lime Basil)
- 1 teaspoon freshly grated garlic
- 2 cups peeled and diced sweet potatoes
- 14.5 oz can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
- 4 oz canned diced green chiles
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Fresh cilantro, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
-
Sizzle & Spice: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and diced onion, crumbling beef as it cooks. Sprinkle in Slow Noon and let the aromas take over your kitchen. Add garlic just before the beef finishes cooking and sauté for another minute. Transfer mixture to a plate and wipe skillet clean.
-
Sweet Potato Fiesta: In the same skillet, combine diced sweet potatoes, fire-roasted tomatoes, green chiles, water, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir, cover, and reduce heat to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for about 20 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender.
-
The Grand Reunion: Mix the beef mixture back into the sweet potato medley. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top, cover for one more minute, and let it melt to cheesy perfection.
-
Garnish & Serve: Finish with chopped cilantro for a fresh pop of flavor. Serve straight from the skillet or plate it up for extra flair.
This Southwestern Sweet Heat Skillet is comfort food meets adventure, thanks to the citrusy zing of Slow Noon. Quick, satisfying, and playful—dinner doesn’t have to be boring!

Pro Tip
- Pro Tip: Swap sweet potatoes for butternut squash or regular potatoes for a different twist.
- Make it spicy: Add an extra teaspoon of chili powder if you like more heat.
- Meal Prep Friendly: Keeps well in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheats beautifully.
