Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe deep skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, and bell peppers. Cook until the vegetables have softened and the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
- Move the veggies to one side of the skillet and add the ground beef. Break it up with a spoon and cook until browned, then drain any excess fat. Stir the cooked meat and vegetables together.
- Season the mixture with Italian seasoning, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir in the diced tomatoes with their juices and tomato paste until everything is well combined.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer. Stir in the instant rice and gently simmer for 3-4 minutes, letting the rice absorb some of the liquid.
- Sprinkle on the shredded cheeses. If you don’t have an oven-safe deep skillet, transfer the mixture to a 9x13-inch casserole dish and sprinkle on the cheeses.
- Bake for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. If you want the cheese lightly browned, switch to broil for the last 2-3 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow the casserole to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
