Ingredients

  • 1 large sweet potato, cut into ½-inch cubes, 2 to 2-1/2 cups
  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 1 tablespoon taco seasoning mix
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 12 ounces cooked lean beef steak, roast, pot roast or deli beef roast, cut into 1/2-inch cubes, about 2-1/2 cups
  • 1/3 cup coarsely chopped cilantro or Italian parsley

Directions

  1. Heat large skillet, preferably nonstick, over medium heat. Add sweet potato, onion, taco seasoning mix and water. Cover and cook 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are crisp tender and water has almost evaporated.
  2. Stir in oil and continue cooking, uncovered, stirring occasionally, 4 to 6 minutes longer or until potatoes are tender and beginning to brown.
  3. While potatoes cook combine sour cream and hot sauce in a small bowl. Set aside until ready to serve.
  4. When potatoes are tender add beef to skillet. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes or until beef is heated through. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons water if necessary to prevent sticking.
  5. Garnish with cilantro or parsley. Serve with sour cream-hot sauce mixture.
