This dish is everything you love about a burrito, sans tortilla, all in one lucky pan (hello, easy cleanup)! You’ll brown hearty ground beef with our savory Mexican spice blend, then add black beans and rice, and allow the flavors to bubble and meld. Serve it right out of the pan with a sprinkle of chopped cilantro and dollops of spiced crema for tangy, creamy contrast.

Instructions

Prep
1

• Wash and dry produce. • Drain and rinse beans. Roughly chop cilantro. Reserve 1 tsp Mexican Spice Blend (2 tsp for 4 servings) in a small bowl (you’ll use it to make the crema in Step 4).

Start Skillet
2

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add beef*, garlic powder, remaining Mexican Spice Blend, ½ tsp salt (1 tsp for 4 servings), and pepper. • Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and mostly cooked through, 2-3 minutes (beef will finish cooking in Step 5). TIP: If there’s excess grease in the pan, carefully pour it out.

Add Beans & Rice
3

• Stir drained beans, rice, and stock concentrate into pan with beef mixture. Cook, stirring, until rice is lightly toasted, 30-60 seconds. • Stir in 1 cup water (2 cups for 4 servings). Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender and liquid has mostly absorbed, 15-18 minutes.

Make Crema
4

• While rice cooks, add sour cream to bowl with reserved Mexican Spice Blend; stir to combine. • Add water ½ tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

Finish Skillet
5

• When rice is done, fluff beef and rice mixture. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.

Serve
6

• Drizzle beef, bean, and rice skillet with crema. Sprinkle with cilantro. Serve directly from pan. TIP: Serve with your favorite hot sauce and tortilla chips!

Ground Beef is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.
