Cooking Steps
- Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
- Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
- In a medium pot, stir together broth concentrate, wild rice medley, 1 cup (2 cups) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook for 18-20 min, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
- Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- While the pan heats, pat corn dry with paper towels.
- When hot, add corn to the dry pan.
- Cook for 4-5 min, stirring occasionally, until dark brown in spots.
- Transfer charred corn to a plate.
- Meanwhile, core, then cut hot pepper into 1/2-inch pieces, removing seeds for less heat. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping hot peppers.)
- Peel, then cut onion into 1/2-inch pieces, then finely chop 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp).
- Roughly chop cilantro.
- Cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
- To a medium bowl, add finely chopped onions, tomatoes, lime juice, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) lime zest and half the cilantro. Toss to combine.
- Return the same pan (from step 2) to medium-high. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) butter. Swirl until melted.
- Add beef and remaining onions. Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
- Add hot peppers, then season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until tender-crisp.
- Add Tex-Mex paste and Southwest Spice Blend to the pan with beef and veggies.
- Cook for 30 sec, stirring often, until fragrant.
- Add 1/2 cup (2/3 cup) water.
- Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until sauce thickens slightly.
- To the pot with wild rice, add charred corn, remaining cilantro and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) butter.
- Season with salt and pepper, then fluff with a fork until butter melts.
- Divide charred corn wild rice between plates.
- Top with beef mixture, then pico de gallo.
- Squeeze a lime wedge over top, if desired.
If you've opted to get beef, reduce butter to 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp), then add beef to the pan. Cook beef in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the turkey.** Remove and discard excess fat, if desired.
