This Keto Hamburger Broccoli Skillet is a simple, low-carb, and satisfying meal combining juicy ground beef, tender broccoli, and creamy cheddar cheese in one skillet. Perfect for a quick and wholesome keto dinner.

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef (80/20)

2 cups broccoli florets

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

2 tablespoons heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients by measuring ground beef, broccoli florets, and cheese. Wash and cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Once hot, add ground beef and cook 5-7 minutes until browned, breaking apart while cooking.
  3. Add broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook 5-7 minutes until broccoli is tender but crunchy.
  4. Reduce heat to low, pour in heavy cream, and add half the shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until cheese melts and mixture is creamy.
  5. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top, cover, and cook 2-3 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Notes

  • Swap cheddar cheese with mozzarella or pepper jack for a different flavor.
  • Add sliced mushrooms or bell peppers for extra veggies.
  • Use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef for a leaner option.
  • Increase red pepper flakes or add hot sauce for more spice.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for added freshness.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave to avoid drying out.
  • Frozen broccoli can be used after thawing and draining excess water.
  • For dairy-free, substitute cheese and cream with dairy-free alternatives.
