Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp neutral cooking oil $0.08, generic cooking oil
- 1/2 lb ground beef $4.00
- 1 3/4 tsp salt $0.05, divided
- 1 yellow onion $0.42, diced
- 2 cloves garlic $0.10, minced
- 1/2 tsp oregano $0.05
- 1/4 tsp cumin $0.03, ground
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce $0.03
- 1 oz. can diced tomatoes $1.00
- 1/2 cup chicken broth $0.08
- 1 oz. can chickpeas $0.79, drained
- 2 cups rice $0.85
- 3 cups water $0.00
- 2 Tbsp butter $0.28, salted
- 1 pinch red pepper flakes $0.02
Instructions
- Set a deep stainless steel skillet over medium-high heat and add the cooking oil. Once the oil has warmed, add the ground beef and sprinkle it with a 1/2 teaspoon salt. Once the beef has browned, remove it from the pan and set aside. Keep about 2 tablespoons of rendered fat in the pan.
- Add the diced onion to the pan and cook until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the minced garlic to the pan and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the beef back to the pan with oregano, ground cumin, and Worcestershire sauce. Top the meat with the diced tomatoes and their juices. Stir to combine.
- Add the chicken broth and drained chickpeas to the beef mixture. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and stir to combine. Cover the pan and cook until the chickpeas soften, about 15 to 20 minutes.
- While the beef mixture cooks, add the rice to a rice cooker, along with the water, salted butter, and remaining 1 teaspoon of salt.
- When the beef and tomato mixture finishes cooking, sprinkle with red pepper flakes. Divide the rice into four bowls and top with the beef mixture. Enjoy!
