Preheat the oven to 425°F. On a half-sheet pan, toss the sweet potato wedges with half the olive oil, half the salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Spread them in a single layer and roast for 10 minutes.
Push the potatoes to one side of the pan. Add the green beans to the other side and toss with the remaining olive oil and another pinch of salt. Roast until the beans are blistered in spots and the potatoes are fork-tender, about 10 to 12 minutes.
While the vegetables finish roasting, heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and onion. Cook, breaking the meat into small crumbles, until the beef is well-browned and the onion is soft and lightly golden, about 6 to 8 minutes. Done when no longer pink, 160°F.
Stir in the garlic, dried thyme, smoked paprika, remaining salt, and remaining black pepper. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the beef broth, using a spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the pan. Simmer for 2 minutes until the liquid is mostly reduced, then stir in the red wine vinegar.
Mound the savory beef onto a plate and serve the roasted sweet potatoes and green beans alongside it.
