What Makes This Dish So Tasty
Quick, hearty, and full of bold flavors. It combines the ease of one-pot cooking with the comforting spices of a classic taco. Perfect for busy weeknights or when you want a satisfying meal with minimal cleanup.
Step 1
Gently heat a heavy pot over medium heat. Toss in the onions and ground beef, cooking and stirring until the beef is nicely browned and crumbly and the onions have softened, which should take about 5 minutes. Once that’s done, drain any excess grease from the pot.
Step 2
Pour in the beef broth and add the beans, tomatoes, corn, and the Knorr Fiesta Sides - Taco Rice. Stir in a tablespoon of buttery spread to give it a nice richness. Bring everything up to a boil, then lower the heat, cover the pot, and let it simmer until the rice is tender—this usually takes around 7 minutes.
Step 3
After it's done cooking, take the pot off the heat and let it sit for a couple of minutes. Give it a good stir, then serve it up with some shredded cheese and a dollop of sour cream on top. Enjoy!
