Ground Beef and Cabbage Skillet (Easy & Delicious!)

—

### Instructions

1. **Brown the Beef**: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spoon. Remove excess fat if necessary.

2. **Sauté Aromatics**: Add diced onion and garlic to the beef. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

3. **Add Cabbage and Seasonings**: Stir in sliced cabbage, paprika, oregano, and optional red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender but still slightly crisp, about 8–10 minutes.

4. **Adjust Seasoning and Serve**: Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot, straight from the skillet.
