Roast or air fry the sweet potatoes: If roasting in the oven, preheat to 400°F (if using an air fryer, no need to preheat). In a medium bowl, toss the sweet potatoes with the oil, salt, and pepper. Transfer to the air fryer basket, or spread onto a rimmed baking sheet in an even layer. Air fry at 400°F for 12 minutes, shaking the basket a few times throughout, until the potatoes are tender and darkening at the edges (or roast in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping halfway through).

Brown the beef: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil. Once the oil is hot, add the beef, onion, tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook, using a sturdy wooden spoon or heatproof spatula to break up the beef. Continue browning until the beef is cooked through, about 7 minutes.
