BEEFY SPANISH RICE



Beefy Spanish Rice image

You can changed this up multiple ways to make it spicier or less spicy as you need it or like it. Super easy!!! And goes great with Mexican Cornbread and some mashed potatoes!

Provided by Cindy Dozier

Categories     Beef

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb ground beef
1 jalapeno, minced
1 medium onion, chopped
1 can(s) diced tomatoes
1 Tbsp garlic, minced
1 c riced, cooked
1 pkg taco seasoning
salt to taste
pepper to taste
your favorite hot sauce to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Add jalapeno and onion to skillet and let it cook for a couple of minutes. Then add your ground beef and brown it. Drain & return to skillet. Now I use a cast iron skillet for all my cooking - I just love my cast iron! Anyway - Then add your garlic and mix it in. Add tomatoes stir it in and then add your taco seasoning - (I don't add any water to this) Then I let it sit on low for about 3 minutes or so then I add the rice and hot sauce and salt and pepper to taste. After this you let it sit on low for an additional 2 or 3 minutes to marry in the hot sauce and then serve.
  • 2. I usually serve this with mashed potatoes and some mexican cornbread. My family loves it! You can always add more peppers or more hot sauce or leave them out all together if you don't like the heat.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the tastier the dish will be. Opt for fresh, flavorful vegetables, tender beef, and a flavorful broth.
  • Cook the rice in a flavorful broth: This will infuse the rice with extra flavor. You can use beef broth, chicken broth, or vegetable broth.
  • Brown the beef before adding it to the rice: This will help to develop the beef's flavor and give it a nice crust.
  • Add vegetables to the rice: Vegetables will add color, texture, and nutrients to the dish. Some good choices include carrots, celery, onions, and peas.
  • Season the rice well: Don't be afraid to add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a splash of soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce for extra flavor.
  • Let the rice rest before serving: This will allow the rice to absorb all of the flavors and become fluffy.

Conclusion:

Beefy rice is a delicious, easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. By following these tips, you can make a beefy rice dish that is packed with flavor and sure to please the whole family.
