Seasonings and Garnish

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

Instructions

  1. Preparing the Rice: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of uncooked jasmine rice with 2 cups of beef broth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Let it simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
  2. Cooking the Beef: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add 1 pound of ground beef, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook for 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat.
  3. Sautéing the Vegetables: Add the sliced bell peppers and minced garlic to the skillet with the cooked beef. Stir well and cook for an additional 5 minutes until peppers soften and garlic is fragrant, enhancing the dish’s flavor and color.
  4. Combining Ingredients: Add the cooked jasmine rice to the skillet with the beef and vegetables. Pour in 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, 1 teaspoon paprika, and salt to taste. Mix thoroughly and heat through for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally to blend the flavors.
  5. Final Touches: Spoon the beef and rice mixture into bowls. Garnish with chopped green onions to add a fresh flavor and vibrant color. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Beef Pepper Rice Bowl!
