Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 cups cooked rice (white or brown)
  • 1 cup bell peppers, sliced (any color)
  • 1 cup corn (canned or frozen)
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (for Garlic Pepper Cream)
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise (for Garlic Pepper Cream)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (for Garlic Pepper Cream)
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (for Garlic Pepper Cream)
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice (for Garlic Pepper Cream)

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  3. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.
  4. Stir in the soy sauce, sriracha, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the spices are well combined and heated through.
  5. While the beef is cooking, prepare the Garlic Pepper Cream by mixing the sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic powder, black pepper, and lime juice in a small bowl. Set aside.
  6. To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked rice among four bowls. Top each with the spicy beef mixture, sliced bell peppers, corn, and avocado.
  7. Drizzle the Garlic Pepper Cream over the top and garnish with fresh cilantro.

Notes

  • For a lighter version, substitute ground turkey or chicken for the beef.
  • Add your favorite vegetables, such as zucchini or broccoli, to the beef mixture for extra nutrition and flavor.
