02 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
03 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
04 - 1 teaspoon onion powder
05 - 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
06 - Salt and black pepper, to taste
→ Meat Mixture
07 - 1 pound ground beef or turkey (93/7 lean recommended)
08 - 1 teaspoon chili powder
09 - 1 teaspoon cumin
10 - 1 small red onion, chopped
→ Add-Ins
11 - 15 ounces black beans (1 can), drained and rinsed
12 - 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, canned, or frozen)
→ Toppings
13 - 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
14 - 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
15 - 1 medium avocado, diced
16 - 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, loosely packed and chopped
17 - Lime wedges, for serving
18 - Sour cream, for topping
# Directions:
01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large 13×18 inch baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
02 - Spread diced potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle evenly with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat thoroughly.
03 - Roast potatoes for 30 to 35 minutes, flipping halfway through cooking, until golden brown and crispy on the edges.
04 - While potatoes roast, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef or turkey and cook for 7 to 8 minutes, breaking apart with a wooden spoon, until browned and completely cooked through. Drain excess fat if necessary.
05 - Add chili powder, cumin, and chopped red onion to the cooked meat. Stir well and continue cooking for 5 minutes until onion has softened.
06 - Stir in black beans and corn. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until heated through. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
07 - Divide crispy roasted potatoes among 4 bowls (approximately 1 cup each). Top each bowl with about 3/4 cup of the meat and bean mixture.
08 - Sprinkle 3 to 4 tablespoons of shredded cheddar cheese over each bowl. Allow to sit for 30 seconds so residual heat melts the cheese.
09 - Top each bowl with cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, and fresh cilantro. Serve immediately with lime wedges and a dollop of sour cream.
