2
tablespoons olive oil
1
cup diced onion
1
cup diced green bell pepper (I omitted, but would add next time)
1
tablespoon minced fresh garlic
1
pound ground beef (I used ground turkey)
½
teaspoon dry mustard
2
teaspoons chili powder
2
teaspoons kosher salt
¼
teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½
cup long grain white rice
2
tablespoons tomato paste
1
14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes with juice (I omitted, but would add next time)
1
cup water
1
teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1
cup shredded cheddar cheese
In
a skillet that has a tight fitting cover, heat olive oil over medium high. Add
onion, peppers, garlic, ground beef, dry mustard, chili powder, salt and
pepper. Sauté until ground beef is no longer pink, breaking up beef as you
cook. Add
rice and cook for two minutes letting rice absorb liquid.
Add
tomato paste and cook for one minute. Add
canned tomatoes with juice, water and Worcestershire sauce. Stir, cover and
simmer for 20 minutes covered.
After
20 minutes, remove lid and fluff the mixture then serve. If the mixture is to
wet, cook for another few minutes with lid off. If
you are using the cheese, sprinkle on top for last few minutes of cooking time
with lid on.
