Cajun Dirty Rice

By: Jen Wooster from Peel with Zeal
Cajun Dirty Rice

"This Dirty Rice is a bold, weeknight-ready Cajun rice dish made with seasoned ground pork, tender vegetables, and fluffy long-grain rice simmered right in savory beef broth. It's a true Louisiana classic that delivers robust flavor in just 40 minutes. This recipe serves 4 as a one pot dinner or 6 as a side dish. Traditionally rooted in Louisiana cooking, dirty rice gets its name from the "dirty" look the spices and browned meat give the rice. Classic versions use chicken livers, my recipe keeps things simple with ground pork. Many recipes use sausage or ground beef. But after testing several versions, my family preferred the flavor of the pork but didn't care for the extra seasoning the sausage gave the dish. "
