In a large soup pot, cook the ground beef and chopped onion over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the beef is browned and cooked through, about 8 minutes. If there is excess fat, carefully spoon out most of it to reduce grease in the soup.
Stir in the minced garlic, then add the chopped cabbage, tomato sauce, fire-roasted diced tomatoes with their juices, beef broth, water, paprika, Italian seasoning, and uncooked rice to the pot. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
Increase the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Once it begins boiling, stir thoroughly, reduce the heat to low, and cover the pot with the lid slightly ajar. Let the soup simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is fully cooked and tender, ensuring it doesn’t stick to the bottom.
Taste the soup and add salt and pepper as needed. Serve the soup hot for a comforting and flavorful meal.
