Prep 15 min · Cook 10 min

In a small saucepan, combine the rice, 1/2 cup of the water, and half the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let it rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
While the rice simmers, heat the oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 6 minutes. Done when browned through, 160°F.
Add the taco seasoning, black beans, and the remaining 1 1/2 tbsp of water to the skillet. Stir to combine and simmer for 2 minutes until a light sauce forms and the beans are heated through.
Off the heat, stir the diced tomatoes, lime juice, and half the cilantro into the beef mixture. Taste and add the remaining salt if needed. Fluff the rice with a fork and spoon it into a bowl. Top with the beef mixture and the remaining cilantro.
