Title: Easy One Dish
Ingredients:
– 1 pound of ground beef
– 1 onion, chopped
– 2 cloves of garlic, minced
– 1 can (14 ounces) of diced tomatoes
– 1 cup of beef broth
– 1 cup of long-grain white rice
– 1 teaspoon of paprika
– 1 teaspoon of dried oregano
– 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Shredded cheese for topping (optional)
– Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions:
1. Heat a large skillet or oven-safe dish over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
2. Once the beef is browned, add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for a few minutes until the onion is softened and the garlic is fragrant.
3. Stir in the diced tomatoes (with their juices) and beef broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
4. Add the rice, paprika, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
5. Cover the skillet with a lid or foil and let the mixture simmer on low heat for about 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and most of the liquid is absorbed. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
6. Once the rice is cooked, taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. If you prefer a cheesy finish, sprinkle shredded cheese over the top of the dish.
7. If you prefer a crispy cheese topping, place the skillet under the broiler for a few minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your Easy One Dish straight from the skillet or transfer to a serving platter for a cozy presentation.
By following these simple steps, you can enjoy a flavorful and satisfying meal without the hassle of multiple dishes and cleanup. This Easy One Dish recipe is versatile and adaptable, so feel free to customize it with your favorite herbs, spices, or additional vegetables. Serve it as a hearty dinner for the family or impress guests with a cozy and delicious one-dish meal.
