- 1 pound ground beef
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 1 medium onion diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce optional
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and brown the ground beef, breaking it apart as it cooks.
Add diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook until the onion becomes translucent, about 3 minutes.
Stir in broccoli florets to combine with the beef mixture.
Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder; stir to evenly coat ingredients.
Cover the skillet and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until broccoli is tender but still crisp.
Reduce heat to low, pour in heavy cream, and stir gently to combine.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar over the mixture, cover, and cook 2 to 3 minutes until cheese melts.
If desired, stir in Worcestershire sauce and red pepper flakes.
Serve hot directly from the skillet.
- Use fresh broccoli for best texture.
- Substitute cheddar with your favorite cheese.
- Store leftovers in fridge up to 3 days.
- Reheat gently to preserve creaminess.
