Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce.
  • Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
  • Thinly slice green onions.
  • Peel, then cut red onion into 1/8-inch pieces.
  • Cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.
Make salsa
2
  • To a medium bowl, add tomatoes, lime juice, half the green onions, a quarter of the red onions, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
Cook beef
3
  • Heat a medium oven-proof, non-stick pan (use a large pan for 4 servings) over medium-high. When the pan is hot, add 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil, beef, Tex-Mex paste, tomato sauce base and remaining red onions. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Cook for 4-6 min, breaking up beef into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
  • Stir in 2 tbsp (1/4 cup) water. Remove from heat.
Finish beef
4
  • While beef cooks, snip one corner of tortilla chip bag. Using your hands or a rolling pin, crush into bite-sized pieces.
  • Remove the pan from heat. Sprinkle crushed tortilla chips and cheese over top.
  • Bake in the middle of the oven for 3-5 min, until cheese is melted. (TIP: Keep your eye on the pan so chips don't burn!)
Warm rice
5
  • While beef bakes, massage the pouch of rice to separate the grains.
  • Heat rice in the microwave for 2 min, as indicated on the back of the package. (NOTE: If you don’t have a microwave, stir-fry rice in a hot non-stick pan with a splash of water for 3 min, until heated through.)
  • To a large bowl, add rice, lime zest, remaining green onions and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter. Stir to combine.
Finish and serve
6
  • Divide rice between bowls.
  • Top with beef-tortilla mixture, salsa and sour cream.
  • Serve with a lime wedge, if you like.

If you've opted to get beef, cook beef in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the chorizo.**
