Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep frying pan over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pan. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon or spatula as it cooks. Cook until browned and no longer pink, about 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
Stir in the soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce, mixing well to coat the beef in the flavors.
Add the rice, water, salt, and black pepper to the pan. Stir to combine, then bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan with a lid, and simmer for 15 minutes (or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed). Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once the rice is cooked, stir in the frozen peas and carrots. Cover again and let the mixture heat through for 3-5 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Serve hot and enjoy your easy and quick hamburger and rice dinner!
