Instructions

  1. Dice the onion. Brown the ground beef in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain excess fat.
  2. Add the diced onion, cumin, chili powder, and salt to the beef. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the onion softens and the spices are fragrant.
  3. Stir in the rice, diced tomatoes, chicken broth, black beans, and corn. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
  4. Remove from heat and let stand covered for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and serve directly from the pan.
