Instructions
-1 To a large skillet, add the olive oil, ground beef, onion, and heat over medium-high heat to cook. Break up the beef as it cooks and stir onions intermittently to ensure even cooking. -1 After beef has cooked through and onions are tender, evenly sprinkle the taco seasoning, add the tomatoes, salsa, water, rice, black pepper, and stir to combine. -1 Turn the heat to medium, cover, and allow mixture to simmer for about 25 to 30 minutes or until rice is tender and cooked through. Resist the temptation to lift the lid and stir often. Just let it simmer for at least 20 minutes before doing a quick lid lift to check and also do a quick stir at that point. Re-cover and allow to simmer until rice is done. -1 Add the corn and stir to combine. -1 Evenly sprinkle with the cheese, cover, and allow cheese to melt and corn to warm through, about 2 minutes. -1 Evenly sprinkle with cilantro, any optional garnishes, and serve immediately.View original recipe
