How to Make 5 Spice Beef Rice
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes, and brown on all sides.
- Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon black pepper, 2 bay leaves, 4 cloves garlic, minced, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes (undrained), 1 (10 ounce) can beef broth, and 1 cup brown rice.
- If using brown instant rice, add 1/2 cup extra water. Bring mixture to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until rice is cooked and beef is tender, stirring occasionally. Add more water if needed to maintain consistency.
- Remove bay leaves before serving. Serve hot, garnished with sliced olives and a sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste.
