Cajun-Style Beef and Sweet Potato Hash with Wilted Spinach

Heat a heavy-bottomed cast iron skillet over medium-high heat with the olive oil.

Add the diced sweet potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they develop a deep brown, crispy crust and are tender through, about 10-12 minutes.

Remove potatoes from the pan.

Add the ground beef and diced onion to the same skillet, breaking the beef apart with a wooden spoon until browned.

Bloom the Cajun seasoning directly into the beef fat for 1 minute until fragrant.

Return the sweet potatoes to the skillet, tossing everything together to combine the flavors.

Stir in the fresh spinach and fold it into the hot hash until just wilted.

Season with a touch of salt and black pepper to taste.

Serve hot in a bowl, with the edges of the beef slightly charred from the pan for that signature Southern-style intensity.
