Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef
• 1 medium White onion, diced
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 cup White rice (uncooked)
• 2 cups Beef broth
• 1 can (10.5 ounces) Cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika (optional, for garnish)
• 1 tablespoon Cooking oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon.

Step 3

Add the diced onion to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute, until fragrant.

Step 4

Season the beef mixture with salt, black pepper, and paprika if using. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine uncooked rice, beef broth, cream of mushroom soup, and sour cream. Mix until well combined.

Step 6

Add the cooked beef mixture to the bowl and stir to incorporate everything evenly.

Step 7

Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and pour the mixture into the dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 8

Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 35 minutes.

Step 9

Remove the foil, stir the casserole gently, and sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.

Step 10

Return to the oven uncovered and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 11

Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional paprika if desired, and serve warm.
