Step 1
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Brown ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon, until no pink remains, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Add diced onion to the beef and cook until softened and fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in rice, coating it in the beef drippings, for 1 minute until it smells toasted.
Step 4
Pour in broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 12 minutes.
Step 5
Stir in black beans and cook uncovered for 1 minute until heated through.
Step 6
Squeeze lime juice over the bowl and top with fresh cilantro. Serve hot.
