Argentinian Beef
- Olive oil spray
- 1/2 medium onion, minced
- 1/2 red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and minced
- 8 to 10 cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 to 3/4 pound ground meat
- 1 cup white rice
- 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon broth (preferably beef) or water
- 2 cups peeled, cubed butternut squash
- 1/2 head broccoli, cut into florets (about 2 cups)
- Preheat the oven to 450F.
- Spray the inside and lid of a cast-iron Dutch oven with olive oil.
- In a large bowl, mix the onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, cumin, salt, and pepper.
- Add the meat to the bowl and mix well.
- Set aside.
- If using tenderloins rather than ground meat, set the onion-spice mixture aside and simply spoon over the steaks in step 5.
- Rinse the rice in a strainer until the water runs clear.
- Tip the rice into the pot, add the liquid, and stir to make an even layer.
- Drop ragged forkfuls of the meat mixture into the pot.
- If using tenderloins, arrange them in the pot and blanket with the onion-spice mixture.
- Arrange the squash in a layer, then load in the broccoli until the pot is full.
- Cover and bake for about 45 minutes, or until 3 minutes after the aroma of a fully cooked meal escapes the oven.
- Serve immediately.
