SPANISH RICE WITH GROUND BEEF



Spanish Rice with Ground Beef image

Growing up, my mom made a version of Spanish rice with ground beef that was hearty enough that it stood on its own as a main dish. During a visit a few years ago, after missing her cooking desperately, I watched her prepare it and jotted down the recipe. (Don't worry, I checked with my mom and she's totally on board with sharing with you!) Serve on a bed of fresh spinach with a side of refried beans. Garnish with fresh diced tomatoes, green onions, cheese, avocado slices, and crushed chile flakes.

Tips:

  • For authentic flavor, use high-quality Spanish rice, such as Valencia or Bomba. These varieties have a firm texture and absorb the flavors of the other ingredients well.
  • Use a large skillet to cook the rice. This will help to prevent the rice from clumping together and ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Brown the ground beef over medium-high heat. This will help to develop the flavor of the beef and prevent it from becoming dry.
  • Add the rice, diced bell peppers, onion, garlic, and spices to the skillet with the ground beef. Stir to combine and cook until the rice is lightly toasted.
  • Add the chicken broth and water to the skillet. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all of the liquid has been absorbed.
  • Fluff the rice with a fork before serving.

Conclusion:

This skillet Spanish rice with ground beef is a delicious and easy-to-make one-pan meal. It's perfect for a busy weeknight dinner or a casual weekend lunch.
