  2. Add onion; cook 3-4 minutes until softened.
  3. Stir in rice, broth, and corn; bring to a boil.
  4. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer 18-20 minutes until rice is tender and liquid absorbed.

Notes

You can use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef for a lighter option. Add extra veggies like bell peppers or peas for added nutrition and color. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave or on the stovetop.
