Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 medium, diced White onion
- 1 medium, diced Green bell pepper
- 3 cloves, minced Garlic
- 14.5 ounces Canned diced tomatoes
- 2 cups Beef broth
- 1 cup Uncooked long-grain white rice
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 2 teaspoons Creole seasoning
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional, for garnish) Fresh parsley
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat.
Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and fully cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease if necessary.
Add the diced onion, green bell pepper, and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables have softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the Creole seasoning, paprika, salt, and black pepper, ensuring the beef and vegetables are evenly coated with the spices.
Add the canned diced tomatoes (including their juices), beef broth, uncooked rice, and tomato paste to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer.
Cover the skillet with a lid and let it cook over low heat for 15 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once the rice is cooked, taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Remove from heat.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
