Prepare the Ingredients
Dice the potatoes and chop the broccoli into small florets. Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic.

Cook the Ground Beef
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. This should take about 5-7 minutes.

Add the Vegetables

Season and Simmer
Add the salt, black pepper, paprika, dried thyme, and dried rosemary. Stir to evenly coat the vegetables and beef with the seasonings. Pour in the beef broth, making sure the vegetables are mostly covered. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

Rest and Serve
Once cooked, remove the stew from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.
