Equipment
Method
- Combine 1 cup uncooked jasmine rice with 2 cups beef broth in a medium saucepan. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat, then reduce to low, cover tightly with lid, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit covered for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
- While rice cooks, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes until translucent and slightly golden at the edges.
- Add 1 pound ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula into small crumbles. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes until no pink remains and beef reaches 160°F internal temperature. Drain excess fat, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the pan.
- Add sliced bell peppers and cook for 3 minutes until they start to soften. Add minced garlic and stir for 1 to 2 minutes until fragrant, watching carefully to prevent burning.
- Add cooked jasmine rice to skillet along with soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, paprika, and salt to taste. Mix thoroughly until everything is evenly distributed and heated through, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Spoon mixture into serving bowls and garnish with chopped green onions.
Notes
For best results, use 85% lean ground beef and fresh bell peppers. Leftovers store well in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat gently with a splash of broth to prevent drying. This dish works great as lettuce wraps or burrito filling too.
