Cook Time 22 minutes

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 22

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion (diced)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 red bell pepper (cored, seeded and diced)
1 lb ground turkey or beef
salt and black pepper (to taste)
1 jalapeno (cored, seeded and diced (optional))
1 cup uncooked long grain white rice (you can also use minute or brown as well and adjust the cooking time)
1/2 cup canned black beans (drained and rinsed)
1 cup corn kernels (frozen or canned)
1/2 cup sweet peas (frozen or canned (optional))
1 14-ounce can fire-roasted diced tomatoes (undrained)
2-1/4 cups low sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons cumin
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon chili powder (or to taste)
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste)
1 cup shredded Colby-jack or cheddar cheese
diced avocado
green onions
fresh chopped cilantro
sour cream

Steps:

  • In a large 12" skillet over medium heat, sauté onions and garlic in 1 tablespoon of olive oil for 1 minute until fragrant. Add bell pepper and jalapeno and cook for another minute. Add ground meat to skillet and cook until brown, about 4-5 minutes, breaking up the meat as it cooks. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste. Drain any excess fat.
  • Push everything to one side of the pan. Add another tablespoon of olive oil and sauté uncooked rice for about 1 minute or just until some grains start to turn golden brown.
  • Stir in black beans, corn, peas, canned tomatoes, chicken broth, cumin, paprika, chili powder and cayenne pepper.
  • Bring to a simmer, cover and reduce heat to low.
  • Cook about 17-19 minutes or until rice is tender, stirring gently every few minutes so the rice doesn't stick. Season with additional salt and pepper as needed.
  • Sprinkle with cheese and cover with the lid and remove from heat.
  • Allow cheese to melt for 1-2 minutes then serve hot with desired toppings.
