  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon adobo seasoning

Instructions

  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, then add the olive oil and butter.
  • Toss in the onions, peppers, and garlic. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until they soften.
  • Add the ground beef and season with adobo, coriander, smoked paprika, cayenne, black pepper, and salt. Mix well.
  • Let the ground beef cook for 5 to 6 minutes, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon as it browns.
