Recipe type: Entree,Casserole
Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 pound lean beef sirloin, preferably grass fed
  • salt and pepper
  • 2 yellow or orange peppers, diced
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 1 28-ounce can diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup uncooked rice
  • 2 cups water
  • 2-3 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 2-3 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper
  • 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese (or cheddar)
Instructions
  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. While oil is heating, slice meat thinly across the grain into 1 inch pieces. Season meat with salt and pepper and saute until it starts to brown. Add peppers and onions and cook until just barely soft, about 3 minutes. Add tomatoes, rice, water and seasonings, cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and cook until rice is tender, adding a bit more water if needed and stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in cheese before serving. Enjoy with warm, crusty bread.
