Scale
  • 2 cups cooked white rice

  • 1 medium red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and lightly grease a baking dish or oven safe skillet with olive oil.

  3. Mix everything well until the vegetables and seasoning are evenly distributed through the rice.
  4. Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and gently press it into an even layer.
