One Pot Mexican Rice Casserole

Ingredients

• 1 Pound of Quality Ground Beef
• 1 Petite Onion, Finely Chopped
• Salt & Pepper, To Personal Preference
• 2 Heaping Tablespoons of Zesty Taco Seasoning
• 1 Teaspoon of Aromatic Garlic Powder
• 1 Cup of Long Grain White Rice
• 1 1/2 Cups of Rich Beef Broth
• 1 15-Ounce Can of Sweet Corn, Drained
• 8 Ounces of Robust Tomato Sauce
• 1/2 Cup of Tangy Salsa
• 1 Cup of Finely Shredded Cheese

Instructions

Begin by harmoniously combining the ground beef and finely chopped onion, adding salt and pepper according to your personal preference, in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until the beef has transformed into a rich, brown hue with no pink remaining. If needed, drain off the excess grease.

Reintroduce your skillet to the stove, generously sprinkling the beef with the aromatic garlic powder and zesty taco seasoning.

Blend in the long grain white rice, rich beef broth, sweet corn, robust tomato sauce, and tangy salsa, creating a colorful and fragrant melody of ingredients.

Guide this tantalizing mixture to a simmering boil. Then, blanket it with a lid, reduce the heat and let it simmer quietly for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice has reached a tender, fluffy consistency.

Crown your creation with a layer of finely shredded cheese and return the lid to the skillet for a brief 2-3 minutes, just until the cheese has achieved a deliciously gooey, melted state.
