Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup uncooked white rice
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Optional: Fresh parsley for garnish

Method
 

  1. In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes, until fragrant.
  3. Stir in the uncooked rice, beef broth, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  4. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the skillet. Let it simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
  5. Add the butter and dried parsley to the skillet. Stir until the butter is melted and everything is well combined.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve hot. Enjoy this fragrant and comforting dish!

Notes

You can use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef for a lighter option. Add extra veggies like peas or carrots 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.
