Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef lean
- 1 onion diced, medium
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 bell pepper diced
- 1 cup long-grain white rice uncooked
- 1 can 14.5 ounces diced tomatoes, undrained
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 teaspoon oregano dried
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup peas thawed, frozen, mixed
- 1 cup carrot thawed, frozen, mixed
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- parsley for garnish, chopped, fresh
Instructions
- In a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned and cooked through, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
- Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and diced bell pepper to the skillet. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the uncooked rice, diced tomatoes (with their juice), beef broth, oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet with a tight-fitting lid, and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.
- Remove the lid and stir in the frozen peas and carrots mix. Replace the lid and continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the vegetables are heated through.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top. Cover the skillet and let it sit for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
- Fluff the rice with a fork and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
- Long-grain white rice works well in this recipe, as it remains fluffy and separate after cooking. You can substitute other types of rice, such as basmati or jasmine, if desired.
- Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5-6 days.
