Preparation

Step 1

Whisk together the water, ketchup, tomato paste, chili powder, salt and pepper in a medium bowl or glass measure until well combined.

Place the basic beef in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the ketchup mixture to the skillet, and stir until well combined and heated through.
