I'm a big fan of cajun cuisine and one of my favorite side staples is dirty rice. This was my first attempt at ever making it, so I will probably update this recipe as I continue to improve upon it. I had some ground elk meat leftover from my brother's last hunt, so I substituted that for the ground beef! As for now, it's a great, simple and quick way of getting that comforting bite of dirty rice. I would love to hear from you guys if you have more authentic recipes, so please leave it in the comments below or reach out to me if you do!

Dirty Rice served alongside a blackened chicken breast and a side of my "Bill Miller's *Copycat* Green Beans"

DIRTY RICE

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 pound lean ground beef

  • 1 medium onion, diced

  • 1 bell pepper, diced

  • 1 cup celery, diced

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 3 teaspoons Cajun seasoning

  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1 1/2 cups white rice, uncooked

  • 3 1/2 cups beef broth

  • chopped green onion or parsley for garnish

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Add ground beef to a dutch oven or heavy bottomed pan set over medium heat. Crumble with a spatula and cook 4-5 minutes until no pink remains.

  • Add onion, garlic, green pepper, celery, Cajun seasoning, and salt. Stir until softened, about 5 minutes.

  • Add rice and beef broth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer covered about 20 to 25 minutes or until rice is cooked.

  • Allow to sit for 5 to 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

  • Garnish with green onions or parsley before serving. Enjoy!
