Enjoy this simple, hearty One Skillet Creamy Beef Rice. It delivers tender beef and a rich, comforting flavor, perfect for a satisfying weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup uncooked long-grain white rice
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. Drain off any excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the condensed cream of mushroom soup and beef broth. Stir well to combine.
  5. Add the uncooked rice, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together.
  6. Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet tightly, and simmer for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Do not lift the lid while simmering.
  7. Remove the skillet from the heat. Let it stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
  8. Fluff the rice mixture with a fork. If using, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top and cover again until the cheese melts.
  9. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Richard suggests using fresh thyme instead of dried Italian seasoning for a brighter flavor if you have it.
  • For extra creaminess, you can stir in 1/4 cup of milk or heavy cream right before serving.
  • Make sure your heat is low enough after covering to prevent scorching the bottom.
