Ingredients

1 lb ground beef
½ red pepper diced
1 tsp garlic minced
2 tsp taco seasoning
½ cup frozen corn
1 cup white rice
20 oz enchilada sauce two 10 oz cans
2 cup beef broth
10 corn tortillas cut into strips or triangles
1 cup cheddar cheese shredded

Instructions

In an oven-safe skillet, brown the ground beef along with the red pepper. Once the beef is fully cooked, drain off any excess grease. Add in the garlic and taco seasoning and stir until combined.
Add in the corn, rice, enchilada sauce, beef broth, and half of the tortilla strips/triangles. Stir together. Bring to a simmer and cover. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Once the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid, top with the remaining tortilla strips/triangles, followed by the shredded cheese. If using an oven-safe pan, broil for a couple of minutes, until the cheese melts. Otherwise, turn off the heat and cover for a few minutes until the cheese melts.
Top with desired toppings like fresh cilantro, sour cream, diced tomatoes, etc to serve. Makes 4 servings.
