Progresso Broth

Steps

  • 1
    Heat broth to boiling in 2-quart saucepan. Stir in rice and carrots. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 6 to 8 minutes or until carrots are crisp-tender; remove from heat. Let stand 5 minutes.
  • 2
    Meanwhile, heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Cook beef and onion in oil about 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until beef is brown and onion is tender. Stir in cooked rice mixture, pea pods, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
  • 3
    Cover and cook about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, just until pea pods are tender. (Add a small amount of water to mixture if it becomes dry before pea pods are tender.)

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    You can use fresh or frozen peas instead of snap peas.
  • tip 2
    All the prep work can be done ahead of time and the ingredients wrapped in plastic and refrigerated. Cut carrots and wrap separately. Cut and wrap beef and onion together.
  • tip 3
    Add slices of provolone cheese over the top of the skillet after the pea pods are done. Remove skillet from the heat, and cover and let stand 1 to 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
