Instructions

1. Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground meat and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
2. Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
3. Add the cubed potatoes, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir everything to coat the potatoes evenly.
4. Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and let it cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
5. Uncover the skillet and stir in the heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese. Cook, stirring, until the sauce has thickened slightly, about 3-5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
6. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, before serving.

Notes

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. To reheat, gently warm the skillet contents on the stovetop over low heat, stirring occasionally. You may need to add a splash of broth or milk if the sauce has thickened too much.
