Cooking Steps
• In a small pot, combine rice, 1¼ cups water (2 cups for 4 servings), and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
• While rice cooks, wash and dry produce. • Halve, core, and finely dice half the bell pepper; thinly slice remaining bell pepper into strips. Drain mango, reserving juice. Halve, peel, and finely dice onion. Mince some of the diced onion until you have 2 TBSP (4 TBSP for 4 servings); set aside for step 5. Dice tomato. Zest and quarter lime.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add diced bell pepper and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 5-7 minutes. Add mango and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly charred, 1-2 minutes more. • Add ¼ cup water and ½ tsp sugar (1 tsp for 4 servings); cook until liquid has mostly evaporated, 30 seconds. • Turn off heat; transfer to a medium bowl. Wipe out pan.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in same pan over medium high-heat. Add diced onion and sliced bell pepper; season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, 3-4 minutes. • Add pork, Mexican Spice Blend, salt (we used ½ tsp; 1 tsp for 4 servings), and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Stir in reserved mango juice and cook until thickened, 30 seconds. Remove from heat. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
Cook through this step as instructed, swapping in beef or organic beef for pork.
• To bowl with mango mixture, add tomato, minced onion, juice from one lime (juice from 1½ limes for 4 servings; add a bit more if desired), and a large drizzle of olive oil; stir to combine. Taste and season generously with salt and pepper.
• Fluff rice with a fork; stir in lime zest. Season with salt and pepper. • Divide rice between bowls. Top with pork, salsa, and guacamole in separate sections. Serve.
Ground Beef is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.
