Description

A warm and comforting one-pot meal featuring tender beef, vibrant spices, and wholesome ingredients, perfect for cozy weeknights or festive gatherings.


Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 1/3 cup chopped white onions
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 3 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 2 quarts beef stock (or beef broth)
  • 2 cups frozen corn
  • 15.5 ounces black beans (rinsed and drained, 1 can)
  • 14.5 ounces petite diced tomatoes (drained, 1 can)
  • 1 cup tomato purée
  • 2 teaspoons lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 cup white or brown rice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro


Instructions

  1. Heat a Dutch oven or large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, onions, and minced garlic. Cook until the beef is browned and crumbled. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Sprinkle in taco seasoning and mix thoroughly to coat the beef.
  3. Pour in beef stock, followed by corn, black beans, diced tomatoes (with juice), tomato purée, lime juice, salt, and uncooked rice.
  4. Stir well and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat, cover, and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender.
  5. Just before serving, stir in the freshly chopped cilantro to add a bright finishing touch.

Notes

Best served hot with toppings such as cheese, sour cream, lime wedges, and tortilla chips. Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
