Notes

🍚 Keep rice separate when storing leftovers to prevent it from becoming mushy – add fresh rice when reheating for best texture
🌿 Double the herbs for a more robust flavor profile, or add celery and carrots for extra vegetable depth and nutrition
🔥 Add a pinch of red pepper flakes if you enjoy a subtle heat that complements the savory beef and sweet peppers
