No reviews

A flavorful, one-pan dish combining tender steak, sautéed vegetables, and creamy melted queso, served with rice and seasoned with fajita spices.

Ingredients

2 cups Minute Rice

2 cups chicken broth

1 packet fajita seasoning

8 oz tomato sauce

3 bell peppers, sliced

½ yellow onion, diced

2 tbsp olive oil

1 lb top sirloin, sliced into strips

Gordo’s cheese dip (use as much as you like)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced onion and sliced bell peppers, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
  2. Add the steak strips and sprinkle with fajita seasoning. Sear the steak, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your preferred doneness.
  3. Pour in the Minute Rice, chicken broth, and tomato sauce. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  4. Cook the rice according to package instructions, adjusting for different types of rice if necessary.
  5. Once the rice is cooked and most of the liquid is absorbed, spoon Gordo’s cheese dip over the skillet, allowing it to melt into the hot rice and steak.
  6. Scoop the mixture onto plates and serve immediately while it’s hot and cheesy.

Notes

  • For added texture and flavor, include other vegetables like zucchini, mushrooms, or corn.
  • Feel free to substitute chicken or shrimp for the steak if preferred.
  • If you like spice, add diced jalapeños or hot sauce for a spicy kick.
  • For a vegetarian version, use extra vegetables, beans, or tofu instead of steak.
