Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 1 red bell pepper diced
  • 1 green bell pepper diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup cooked rice white or brown
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 green onions sliced (for garnish)
  • Sesame seeds for garnish, optional

Method
 

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula. Cook until browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  3. Stir in the diced red and green bell peppers and minced garlic. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the peppers are tender.
  4. Season the mixture with cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
  5. Add the cooked rice to the skillet, followed by the soy sauce and sesame oil. Mix everything together until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Serve the beef and pepper mixture in bowls, garnished with sliced green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
