Corned Beef Surprise - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 bell pepper, chopped
1 (12 ounce) can corned beef (Hormel or other brand)
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 dash italian seasoning (optional)
1 dash dried basil (optional)
1 dash dried parsley (optional)
1 dash chili powder (optional)
1 dash cayenne pepper (optional)
1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
4 cups small grained white rice, cooked for serving

Preparation

Heat a large skillet, over medium heat, and lightly saute onion and bell pepper in the oil about 2 to 3 minutes; add the corned beef and combine with the onion and peppers by breaking the beef up with a wooden spoon and stirring.
Flatten mixture evenly in the bottom of the pan, then pour the tomato sauce evenly over top; reduce heat, if needed, to prevent sauce bubbling out of the pan.
Season with salt and pepper and other seasonings as desired, to taste (DO NOT STIR).
Simmer, uncovered, over medium low heat, until liquid has mostly evaporated, about 15 minutes.
Place about 1 cup of rice on each of 4 serving dishes, then divide beef mixture into 4 and use a spatula to place each portion on top of the rice.
