Steps

  1. Heat a skillet over the stove with oil.
  2. Add ground beef to the hot pan and cook, breaking it up with a spoon until no longer pink.
  3. Season the cooked ground beef with salt and pepper.
  4. Add diced onion and diced red bell pepper to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.
  5. Stir in two cloves of minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
  6. Add rice (white or brown) to the skillet.
  7. Sprinkle smoked paprika, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes over the mixture. Stir-fry the spices briefly to release their flavor.
  8. Pour in beef broth (or chicken broth). Bring the liquid to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover with a lid, and let it cook for about 15 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
  9. Once the rice is cooked, stir in red wine vinegar.
  10. Add freshly chopped cilantro and freshly chopped parsley. Season one last time with salt and pepper.
  11. Stir everything together to combine.
