Ingredients
- 1 cup uncooked long-grain white rice
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 small onion, diced
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 cup low-sodium beef broth
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 3 tablespoon butter
- 2 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
1. In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the ground beef and diced onion, cooking until the beef is browned and the onion is softened. Drain any excess fat from the pan.
2. Stir in the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to bloom and the garlic to become fragrant.
3. Add the uncooked rice and beef broth to the skillet. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 15-18 minutes, or until the rice is tender.
4. Once the rice is cooked, stir in the milk, cheddar cheese, Parmesan, and the remaining 2 tablespoon of butter. Mix everything together until the cheese is melted and the dish is creamy and smooth.
5. Sprinkle the fresh parsley (if using) over the top of the Cozy Garlic Butter Beef Bowl and serve warm in bowls for a comforting and satisfying meal.
