Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 bell peppers (any color), sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

Rice and Seasonings

  • 1 cup uncooked jasmine rice
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt to taste

Garnish

  • Chopped green onions

Instructions

  1. Preparing the Rice: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup jasmine rice with 2 cups beef broth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rice sit covered for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
  2. Cooking the Beef: Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add the ground beef and cook for 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart until browned. Drain excess fat.
  3. Sautéing the Vegetables: Add sliced bell peppers and minced garlic to the skillet with beef. Stir and cook for 5 minutes until peppers soften and garlic is fragrant.
  4. Combining Ingredients: Add the cooked jasmine rice to the skillet. Pour in 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, 1 teaspoon paprika, and salt to taste. Mix well and heat through for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Final Touches: Spoon the beef and rice mixture into bowls. Garnish with chopped green onions for freshness and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use fresh vegetables for better flavor and texture.
  • Cook beef on medium heat to brown without burning.
  • Do not rush sautéing to allow flavors to meld and vegetables to soften.
  • Thoroughly mix rice with beef and vegetables to absorb flavors.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste; add more black pepper or hot sauce for extra spice.
  • Consider using low-sodium soy sauce and broth to control sodium intake.
