How To Make FIDEO CON CARNE AND PAPAS

Prepare the Pan: On medium heat, pour olive oil into a broad sauté pan. Once hot, toss in the Fideo, stirring until they turn a golden brown. Transfer the browned noodles to a plate lined with paper towels.

Cook the Meat: In the same pan, crumble the ground beef. Add the salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, and smoked paprika. Stir and cook until the meat is browned and cooked through.

Soften the Onions: Mix in the diced onion, sautéing for about 3 minutes until they begin to soften.

Add the Veggies: Incorporate the diced potatoes and canned tomatoes into the pan.

Pour in Liquids: Add the chicken bouillon cube and water, letting everything simmer together over medium heat for about 15 minutes.

Finish with Noodles: Return the browned Fideo noodles to the pan, give a good stir, and add extra water if the mixture seems too thick. Cover the pan and let it cook for 10 more minutes or until the noodles are cooked to your liking.

Taste and Serve: Check for seasoning and adjust if necessary. Serve hot and enjoy your homemade Fideo con Carne and Papas!
