Instructions

Heat a large skillet or saute pan on medium heat. Add olive oil until hot. Add onion and saute until soft, about 3-4 minutes.
Add garlic and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Then add the ground beef and seasonings. Break apart the beef with a wooden spoon or masher. Cook until the beef is no longer pink and almost cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Then stir in the tomato paste.
Add the crushed tomatoes (no need to drain), uncooked rice, cabbage, and beef broth. Give it a stir to make sure everything is well combined. Bring everything to a boil. Reduce to low heat, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes until the rice is cooked, stirring occasionally. Cooking times will vary depending on your pan and stovetop.
Turn off the heat, give it a stir, and add extra broth if needed. Add the lemon juice and fresh parsley. Give it a taste and add salt to taste.
Hint: If you want to use minute rice instead, you only need to let the cabbage and tomato mixture simmer for 15-20 minutes and add the minute rice in the last 1-2 minutes. If using brown rice, cook the rice separately and add it to the mixture in the same way as minute rice.

Notes

This recipe can be adapted to include different vegetables.
For variation, try ground turkey instead of ground beef.
