Dirty Rice with Ground Beef

In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat.

Add ground beef and cook until browned. Drain excess grease if needed.

Stir in diced onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic. Cook until veggies are softened, about 5 minutes.

Add rice, paprika, oregano, thyme, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Stir well to coat everything.

Pour in beef broth. Bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18–20 minutes, or until rice is cooked and liquid is absorbed.

Fluff with a fork. Garnish with chopped green onions if you like.

Note:
Feel free to spice it up! 🌶️ Add sausage, chicken livers, or extra cayenne if you like it more traditional and bold. Adjust the seasoning to make it as mild or as spicy as you want! 🍴
