I grew up in Phoenix, and my husband is from Texas. When we lived in New York, we really missed Southwest-style food, so I created this recipe. It's been a staple through the years.—Barbara Westbrook, Gainsville, Texas
Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 can (15 ounces) pinto beans, undrained
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
2 cans (4 ounces each) chopped green chilies
1/2 cup uncooked long grain rice
1/2 cup water
1 to 2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons dried cilantro flakes
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
shredded cheddar cheese, salsa and minced fresh cilantro
tortilla chips
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook the beef, onion and garlic over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the beans, tomatoes, chilies, rice, water and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; covered and simmer for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. Serve in the skillet or transfer to a shallow serving dish. Sprinkle with toppings of your choice. Serve with tortilla chips. Yield: 6 servings.
