How to Make Down And Dirty Rice

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground beef (or chicken, turkey, or pork), 1 cup uncooked long-grain rice, 1 (15-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained, 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed tomato soup, 1 cup beef broth, 1 small onion, chopped, 1 green bell pepper, chopped, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  4. Pour the rice mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  5. Bake for 30 minutes.
  6. Stir gently to break up the ground meat and redistribute ingredients.
  7. Continue baking for another 30 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and the liquid is absorbed. Stir every 15 minutes to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
  8. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped green onions or fresh cilantro, if desired.
