Ingredients
- 1 lb 450 g ground beef
- 1 small onion chopped
- 1 bell pepper chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup ketchup
- 2 tbsp mustard
- 1 ready-made pie crust or biscuit dough
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure even baking for your pie.
Cook the Ground Beef
- Heat olive oil in a skillet. Add ground beef and cook until brown, breaking it into small pieces.
Add Onions and Bell Pepper
- Add chopped onion and bell pepper. Sauté until vegetables are soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
Season the Mixture
- Add garlic, salt, pepper, paprika and oregano. Stir for 1–2 minutes to release the flavors.
Mix Sauce Ingredients
- In a small bowl, combine milk, ketchup and mustard. Pour over beef mixture and stir well.
Add Cheese
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the beef mixture. Stir slightly to mix some, leaving some on top.
Prepare the Crust
- Roll out your pie crust or biscuit dough. Lay it gently over the beef mixture in the skillet.
Bake the Pie
- Place the skillet in the oven. Bake for 20–25 minutes until crust is golden brown.
Check for Doneness
- Pierce the crust with a fork. If it is firm and golden, the pie is ready to serve.
Cool Slightly and Serve
- Let the pie cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm for best flavor.
Notes
- Cheese Options: Try mozzarella, pepper jack, or a blend for different flavors.
- Vegetables: Add mushrooms, spinach, or corn for extra nutrition.
- Spicy Twist: Include a pinch of cayenne pepper for a subtle heat.
- Crust Alternatives: Use puff pastry or crescent rolls if you want a flakier texture.
- Make Ahead: Prepare the filling in advance and store in the fridge before baking.
