Place the skillet back on the heat and add in the bell peppers, diced tomatoes, rice, beef broth, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and let cook for about 18 minutes, until the rice is cooked through.
- Fluff the rice with a fork and top with the shredded cheese. Cover again and let the cheese melt over low heat. Garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy!
