    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper; sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.

    Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

    Increase the heat to medium-high, then add 1 pound of ground beef. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned and cooked through.
