Ingredients:

2 tablespoons of high heat oil or ghee
2 1/2 cups leftover rice
1 lb Pre Ground Beef (any lean point will work!)
1 15oz can fire-roasted crushed tomatoes
1/4 cup water
1 small onion
1 1/2 tablespoons of za’atar spice
1 cup of green beans, chopped into bite-sized pieces (fresh or frozen works)
Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat your oven to 425ºF
Preheat a large ovenproof skillet, over medium heat. Drizzle in about 1 tsp of oil to your pan and brown the ground beef.
Once your beef has color, add in onions, salt, and za’atar and continue cooking.
After onions are soft and translucent, add in the fire-roasted tomatoes and water. Make sure the scrape the bottom of your pan to release any fond.
Add in green beans and cook the beef mixture for about 5 minutes or until green beans begin to soften.
Transfer beef mixture into the lid of your pan or a separate bowl and scrape the pan clean.
Preheat the same pan over medium heat and add in the remaining oil. Scatter the leftover rice in the pan in an even layer. Allow rice to slowly crisp up, this can take about 10 minutes or so, just monitor the heat so it gets golden brown and not burnt! Medium to medium-low heat should do the trick.
Once you can see the edges of your rice getting golden brown, top the crispy rice cake with your saucy beef mixture, leaving a “crust” of crispy rice around the perimeter.
Place skillet into a 425ºF oven for about 10-15 minutes, just to ensure everything is nice and hot all the way through.
Once you’ve taken your dish out of the oven, allow it to rest for about 5 minutes before cutting into triangles and serving. Top with fresh herbs and enjoy!

"Real talk...since my cancer was environmental and not hereditary I am super conscious of what goes into my body, especially protein. Post chemo left my body super low in iron so steak remains in my diet. I found Pre a few months ago and it’s the only meat I buy. Grass-fed, no added hormones and most importantly affordable. Eat better for your body people!"

"Your steaks, especially the sirloin, ribeye, and filet mignon are absolutely delicious. Wasn’t sure how these cuts would taste grilled but they taste just as good if not better than cuts I’ve had a top notch steakhouses."

Mario

"When our son was diagnosed with a rare medical disorder, it meant that we would have to change our diet as a family. Because his metabolism doesn’t function like a typical person’s, we have to be very careful about what we feed him. One of the changes we made was to use more grass-fed and finished beef in our cooking. We decided to give Pre a try, and we are so happy with the quality and taste of the meat. Buying from Pre gives us peace of mind and we feel confident knowing that we are using a product in the top of its class."

Lindsay

"This beef is AMAZING! I'm from Wisconsin so a huge steak lover. This is some of the best beef, I've experienced and I've had beef around the world. It's a must try, and you'll understand what I mean."
