One-Pot Beef, Capsicum & Rice Skillet
Cook time: 30 min
A hearty one-pot dinner built on the Costco 85/15 ground beef pack with capsicum, onion, garlic, and diced tomatoes simmered in bone broth. Jasmine rice cooks right in the pot for a comforting, saucy skillet.
NOTES: Drain rendered beef fat to trim ~30-50 cal and 4-6g fat per serving. The 2 cups broth keeps it saucy — add more a splash at a time if the rice needs it. Leftovers hold 3-4 days refrigerated.
Ingredients
- 2 lb (908g) 85/15 ground beef (Costco frozen pack)
- 3 bell peppers (capsicum), sliced
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 can (14.5oz) diced tomatoes
- 1 cup jasmine rice, dry
- 2 cups bone broth
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp cumin
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp salt (to taste)
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high. Add the onion and cook until softened, ~4 min. Add the garlic and cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the ground beef, breaking it apart. Cook until browned, ~7 min. Drain excess fat here if trimming calories.
- Stir in the cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, and salt. Toss to coat the beef.
- Add the sliced capsicum and cook 2–3 min until they start to soften.
- Stir in the diced tomatoes (with juice), dry jasmine rice, and bone broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer 18–20 min until the rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed. Stir once or twice to prevent sticking.
- Turn off the heat and let it sit covered for 5 min. Fluff and serve.
