Beef and Pepper Rice Bowl (Print Version)

Ground beef and peppers over rice with savory spices. Quick, hearty, and delicious.

# Ingredients:

Vegetables

01 - 1 medium onion, diced
02 - 1 green bell pepper, diced
03 - 1 red bell pepper, diced
04 - 1 jalapeño, diced

Proteins and Fats

05 - 1 lb ground beef
06 - 2 tablespoons butter

Seasonings

07 - ½ cup soy sauce (low sodium optional)
08 - 1 tablespoon garlic powder
09 - 1 teaspoon salt
10 - 2 teaspoons black pepper

Optional

11 - Cooked rice, for serving

# Instructions:

01 - Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion, green and red bell peppers, and jalapeño. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and release their fragrance, about 4-5 minutes.
02 - Add ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat to reduce greasiness.
03 - Incorporate the soy sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir thoroughly and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes to harmonize the flavors.
04 - Spoon the beef and pepper mixture over cooked rice to serve a hearty and flavorful combination.

# Notes:

01 - Using low sodium soy sauce helps control the saltiness and keeps the dish balanced.
