Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium zucchini, diced
- 2 cups cooked white rice
- 1 14.5-ounce can canned diced tomatoes
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and fully cooked, about 5–7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until the onion softens and turns translucent, about 3 minutes.
Stir in the paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper, mixing well to evenly coat the beef with the spices.
Add the diced red bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.
Stir in the cooked white rice and diced tomatoes (including their juices). Mix everything together and let it simmer for 5–7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Evenly sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 3–5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy your 'That One Stuff'!
