Ingredients

Instructions

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook, breaking up with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Season with half the salt, pepper, paprika, and thyme. Remove beef to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
Add remaining olive oil to the same skillet. Add zucchini, red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and red onion. Sauté for 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, until vegetables are crisp-tender. Add garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant. Season with remaining salt, pepper, paprika, and thyme.
Push vegetables to the side of the pan. Add shredded chicken and warm through for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Return ground beef to the pan. Toss everything together gently and cook for another minute to combine flavors. Drizzle lemon juice over the bowl and toss again to brighten the dish.
Serve hot, dividing between bowls. Optionally top with extra cracked black pepper and a wedge of lemon.
