riz blanc with oven grilled beef

Riz Blanc, literally translated as “white rice” is a rice made with broth or stock, usually beef or lamb stock, but you can use chicken stock as well. The stock gives the rice tons of flavor.

In this recipe, I am using beef round, cut into chunks. To cut the total cooking time, you can make the meat a day before.

Total Cooking Time: 1h50-2h
Serving: 4 – 6

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb beef, cut into chunks
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 6 cups water
  • salt
  • pepper
  • garlic powder
  • 1 Tbsp vinegar
  • 2 tsp Creole seasoning salt
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables

Steps:

  1. Put beef in a bowl, clean with water and vinegar, and Put it in a medium to large pot.
  2. Generously sprinkle every inch of the beef with salt, pepper, and garlic to s.eason.
  3. Add oil and onions.
  4. Cover pan, and put it over medium-low heat, and cook for 15 min.
  5. Remove cover, add water, and put heat up to medium.
  6. Cover first with aluminum foil and then with pan cover, and cook for another 45 min. After 35 min,  preheat oven to 400ºF.
  7. Put heat down to low, remove the cover and the aluminum foil.
  8. Use a slotted spoon to remove the meat pieces, lay them in a single layer on a baking sheet, and put it in the oven for 10 min.
  9. There should be about 2 cups of beef broth left in your pan. Add 2 cups of water to make it 4 and the creole seasoning salt.
  10. Let the mixture boil, about 5 min
  11. Rinse 3 cups of rice in a bowl and add it to the broth mixture, stir.
  12. Put the heat back to medium and gently stir every 2 min until much of the liquid is absorbed by the rice, about 6 min.
  13. Turn heat to low, turn off oven and put the meat on the rice.
  14. Add the mixed vegetables, and gently stir.
  15. Cover with aluminum foil and pan cover and let it cook for 30-35 min.
  16. Your rice is ready! Turn the heat off and serve hot or warm.

Bon appetit!
