Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the ground beef and diced onions.

    Cook until the beef is fully browned and the onions are translucent, draining any excess grease from the pan.

    Pour in the beef broth and bring the entire mixture to a rolling boil.

  5. 5

    Stir in the instant rice, cover the skillet with a tight-fitting lid, and remove from heat.

  6. 6

    Let the skillet sit covered for 5 to 7 minutes until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.

  7. 7

    Remove the lid, fluff the mixture with a fork, and sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top.

  8. 8

    Replace the lid for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese, then garnish with cilantro and serve.
