- Place an oven-safe skillet over medium heat*. Add the ground beef and start to brown, breaking it up as it cooks.

- Let the tamale pie sit for about 10 minutes before cutting into wedges to serve. Top with desired toppings.
Notes
- *I originally used a 12-inch skillet, but found that I liked a 10-inch skillet much better. While it still works in a 12-inch skillet, the layers were a bit too thin for me.
