Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Heat a large, deep sauté pan over medium-high heat and spray with cooking spray.
  3. Add ground sirloin to the hot pan along with Worcester sauce, sage, thyme, salt and cayenne. Cook until browned, 7-9 minutes, using a wooden spoon to break down meat. Remove cooked beef from pan and set aside.
  4. In the same pan, sauté carrots, onions and minced garlic over medium heat until tender, about 6-7 minutes, stirring frequently.
  5. Add reserved beef back to the pan and sprinkle entire mixture with flour. Cook for 60 seconds then pour in chicken broth. Bring back to a boil then reduce heat to low. Simmer until gravy starts to form.
  6. Stir in frozen peas and cook until heated through, 1-2 minutes.
  7. Spread beef and vegetable mixture in an even layer on the bottom of a casserole or 8 x 11 baking dish.
  8. Top the beef mixture with the whipped sweet potatoes and use a rubber or offset spatula to spread evenly.
  9. Sprinkle with shredded cheese then bake in the oven until bubbly and golden brown on top, 45-55 minutes depending on oven strength.
  10. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
