Instructions
  1. Combine the beef chuck pot roast, bell pepper, onion, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. Marinate in refrigerator for 15 minutes or up to 1-1/2 hours.
  2. Heat a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Spread 1/3 of beef mixture in thin layer in skillet. Cook until crispy in spots, turning several times, 2–3 minutes. ** Remove from skillet. Repeat twice with remaining beef mixture. Season beef with remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
  3. Serve with rice, black beans, and lime wedges, as desired.
Recipe Notes

**Important cook’s tip for all ground beef recipes: cooking times are for fresh or thoroughly thawed ground beef. Ground beef should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160 degrees. Color is not a reliable indicator of ground beef doneness.
