Sloppy Joe Rice Skillet is a comforting one-pan dinner made with seasoned ground beef, instant white rice, tomato sauce, beef broth, ketchup, and melted cheddar cheese, delivering classic sloppy joe flavor in an easy, family-friendly skillet meal.
Ingredients
1 lb ground beef
• 1/2 yellow onion, diced
• 2 cups instant white rice (such as Minute Rice)
• 2 cups beef broth
• 8 oz can tomato sauce
Sauce & Seasoning:
• 1/4 cup ketchup
• 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon beef bouillon powder
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
Topping:
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
Brown the beef and onions in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until the beef is no longer pink and the onions are softened. Drain any excess grease.
Stir the brown sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, beef bouillon powder, salt, and black pepper into the beef mixture until evenly coated.
Pour in the tomato sauce, ketchup, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and beef broth. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Add the instant rice directly into the skillet. Stir, cover, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the rice has absorbed most of the liquid and is tender.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Cover the skillet again and let it sit for a few minutes until the cheese is melted.
Serve warm spooned into bowls. Top with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or an extra drizzle of ketchup if desired.
