Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a large baking dish or casserole pan with a little oil or cooking spray. Set aside.
Step 2: Cook the Ground Beef
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon. Cook for 6–8 minutes, or until browned and fully cooked through. Drain any excess fat if necessary.
Step 3: Add Tomatoes and Seasonings
Stir in the can of tomatoes (diced or crushed), paprika, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 5–10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Step 4: Combine with Rice
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the cooked white rice. Mix thoroughly to ensure the rice is evenly coated with the beef and tomato mixture. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
