Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce. Add 1 1/4 cups water, 1/8 tsp salt (dbl both for 4 ppl), broth concentrate and half the Enchilada Spice Blend to a medium pot.

Add peppers to the pan with beef. Cook, stirring occasionally, until peppers soften slightly, 3-4 min. Sprinkle garlic salt and remaining Enchilada Spice Blend over beef and peppers. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec. Add salsa. Cook, stirring often, until mixture thickens slightly, 1-2 min.

Add rice to the pan with beef and peppers. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then stir to combine. Remove the pan from heat.
