Ingredients
  

For the Steak
  • 2 pieces ribeye steaks (or your favorite cut)
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
For the Savory Tomato Rice
  • 1 cup long-grain rice
  • 2 cups vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes (with juices)
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 piece bell pepper, chopped (any color)
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Season the ribeye steaks generously with salt and pepper and let them sit.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and bell pepper and sauté until fragrant and soft, about 4-5 minutes.
  3. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.
Cooking
  1. Stir in diced tomatoes, rice, paprika, oregano, and broth. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and let it simmer for 15-18 minutes or until the rice is cooked.
  2. While the rice is simmering, heat another skillet over medium-high heat and add more olive oil. Place the seasoned steaks in the pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  3. Let the steaks rest for a few minutes. Fluff the tomato rice with a fork and serve each steak on a bed of rice, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

You can substitute ribeye with sirloin or flank steak. Leftover rice reheats beautifully, just add a splash of water in the microwave.
