PREP. Deseed and dice the green pepper. Peel and dice the onion. Peel and shred or dice the carrot. Dice the tomatoes. Mince the garlic. Chop the olives. Chop the Cilantro.

COOK BEEF. Preheat a large skillet or frying pan or dutch oven over medium high heat. Add the olive oil and the ground beef. Break the beef up with a spatula and then let it cook to brown and render some of the fat. Cook for 5-8 minutes until all pink is gone. Transfer it to a plate or bowl and leave the fat in the pan.

COOK VEGGIES. To the same pan used for the beef, add the green pepper, onion, carrots, garlic, and tomatoes. Also add in the paprika, cumin, salt and pepper. Stir to combine and let cook for 5-8 minutes until glistening and starting to soften.

MAKE SAUCE. Add the beef back in and sprinkle the flour all over the top. Stir to mix the flour into the beef and veggies. Then stir in the beef broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low heat, cover, and cook for 5-15 minutes (the longer you cook it the more all of the flavors melt together).

FINISH. Finish with the chopped olives and cilantro. Serve over Brazilian Rice (or any cooked rice).
