  • Beef and Kale Chips

    Savory Spiced Beef with Crispy Baked Kale Chips

    Ingredients:

    1 lb (450g) ground beef

    1 tablespoon olive oil

    1 small onion, finely chopped

    2 garlic cloves, minced

    1 teaspoon smoked paprika

    1/2 teaspoon cumin

    Salt and pepper to taste

    1 bunch kale, stems removed and leaves torn

    1 tablespoon olive oil (for kale)

    1/4 teaspoon sea salt

    Optional: crushed red pepper flakes for heat

    Directions:

    Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and sauté for 3 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook for 1 more minute.

    Add ground beef to the skillet and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 8–10 minutes.
