Ingredients
Scale
1 lb ground beef
2 cups long-grain rice
1 medium onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies
4 cups beef broth
1 cup bell peppers, chopped
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
Instructions
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they become translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the pot, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Season with salt, pepper, and cumin. Cook until the beef is thoroughly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
Stir in the chopped bell peppers and diced tomatoes, letting them mingle with the beef mixture for a few minutes.
Add the rice and beef broth to the pot. Stir everything together, ensuring the rice is well incorporated. Increase the heat until it reaches a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 25-30 minutes.
Once the rice is tender, remove the pot from the heat and let it sit for about 5 minutes. Gently fluff the rice with a fork and sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving.
