Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until fragrant and translucent, about 2-3 minutes.
-
Add the beef cubes to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Stir in the diced tomatoes, bell pepper, zucchini, carrot, and green beans. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the vegetables to soften slightly.
-
Add the rice to the skillet and stir well to combine with the meat and vegetables.
-
Pour in the beef broth, stirring gently to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed in the skillet.
-
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the skillet and let the rice cook for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.
-
Once the rice is cooked, fluff it gently with a fork. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
-
Serve the Arroz De Carreteiro Com Legumes hot, garnished with fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
