Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Dice the onion and bell pepper. Mince the garlic cloves.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

  2. 3

    Brown the Beef

    Add the ground beef to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Cook until the beef is browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 7-10 minutes.

  3. 4

    Season the Mixture

    Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, paprika, and cumin over the beef and vegetable mixture. Stir well to combine and let cook for another 2 minutes.

  4. 5

    Add Rice and Broth

    Stir in the rinsed rice and pour in the beef broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and has absorbed the broth.

  5. 6

    Fluff and Serve

    Once the rice is cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Fluff the rice with a fork, and let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
