Texas Hash
This easy, flavorful Texas Hash is a family favorite recipe! It’s made with ground beef, peppers, rice, tomatoes and chili powder.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup diced yellow onion
1 cup diced green bell pepper
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic
1 pound ground beef, 80/20
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup uncooked long grain white rice
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes with juice (see notes for brand recommendations)
1 to 1 3/4 cups water
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, for serving
Instructions
- In a non stick or enamel skillet that has a tight fitting cover, heat olive oil over medium high.
- Add onion, peppers, garlic, ground beef, dry mustard, chili powder, salt and pepper. Sauté until ground beef is no longer pink, breaking up beef as you cook. (Drain any excess grease.)
- Add rice and cook for two minutes letting rice absorb liquid.
- Add tomato paste and cook for one minute.
- Add canned tomatoes with juice, one cup of water and Worcestershire sauce. Stir, cover and simmer on medium low to low for 10 minutes covered.
- Check the liquid. If the most of the liquid has absorbed, add a quarter cup more. Repeat this every five minutes of cooking.
- After 20 minutes, remove lid and check for doneness. If the mixture is too wet, cook for another few minutes with lid off, or add more tomato paste. If the rice is not fully cooked, add a little more water and continue cooking for about five more minutes.
- If you are using the cheese, sprinkle on top of individual portions.

Notes
Different brands of canned diced tomatoes have different tomato to water ratios. We made this recipe using Hunts canned diced tomatoes and one cup of water added to the cooking was enough. We made it again using Pastene canned diced tomatoes, and the ratio of water to tomatoes was less. This required us to add more water to cook the rice fully.
