Now this is a cajun dish that is a full meal on it’s own. I have had many incarnations of Dirty Rice. Some have been good…. some, not so much.
This is a pretty solid recipe, and will be sufficient to feed about 4 healthy folks and leave some leftovers.
Here’s what we’ll need.
2 c. white rice
1 lb. Ground Beef
1 lb. Ground Pork
1 lb. Ground Chicken Giblets ( heart and gizzard)
1/2 c. butter
1 c. celery ( finely chopped )
1 c. Onion ( finely chopped )
1 c. Bell Pepper ( finely chopped )
1 T. Miced fresh garlic
1 t. gound Black Pepper
2 T. Worcestershire sauce
1 T. Salt
1/2 c. red wine
Cook rice according to the directions on the package, but don’t start it real early. You’ll see why in just a minute.
In a large stock pot, combine everything but the rice and the wine. Cook over medium heat for 3 hours stiring every 15 min or so. When it’s cooked for 3 hours, add the cooked rice and the wine. Reduce heat to low and cook for another 30 min, stiring often.
Enjoy
