A weeknight skillet where rice cooks right alongside spiced ground turkey, black beans and salsa. Stir in the liquid, cover tightly, and leave it alone so the rice steams evenly. Top with cheese for the last few minutes.
Ingredients
Serves 6
Directions
- Heat the oil in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the turkey with the onion 6 to 7 minutes, breaking it up, until no pink remains.
- Stir in the chili powder, cumin, paprika and salt and cook 1 minute.
- Add the rice, broth, salsa, beans and corn and bring to a boil.
- Cover, reduce to low, and cook 18 to 20 minutes until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Check that the turkey reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Scatter the cheese over the top, cover, and let stand 5 minutes until melted. Serve with cilantro, lime and sour cream.
Tips and make-ahead notes
- Don't lift the lid early.
- Use brown rice only if you increase the broth and time.
- Wrap leftovers in tortillas.
