→ Main Ingredients
01 -
1 medium onion, finely chopped
02 -
1 tablespoon olive oil
03 -
1 pound steak, diced into small chunks
04 -
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
05 -
1 cup uncooked long-grain rice
06 -
2 cups beef broth
07 -
1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
08 -
Salt, as needed
09 -
Pepper, as needed
10 -
1 teaspoon paprika
11 -
1 teaspoon dried thyme
12 -
2 tablespoons parsley, freshly chopped
# Instructions:
01 -
Heat olive oil in a big pan over medium-high flame. Add the steak chunks and cook until golden all over. Take the meat out and put it aside.
02 -
Throw the chopped onions into the same pan and cook them for about 5 minutes until see-through. Then toss in the garlic and stir for another minute until it smells amazing.
03 -
Mix in the rice, beef broth, paprika, and thyme. Turn the heat up until it starts to bubble.
04 -
Drop the heat to low, cover the pan, and let the rice cook gently for 15-20 minutes. It’s ready when it soaks up all the liquid and gets soft.
05 -
Add the steak back into the pan along with the cheddar cheese. Stir everything together until the cheese melts and blends in smoothly.
06 -
Add salt and pepper to taste, then sprinkle fresh parsley on top just before serving.
# Notes:
01 -
You can swap the steak for chicken or ground beef to switch things up. Adding mushrooms or bell peppers gives it a fun twist. Want more heat? Try tossing in jalapeños or even chili flakes.
