Sides - Cajun Rice Dressing

Category: Appetizers, Sides & Snacks

1 lb ground pork
1 lb ground beef
2 cups rice
1 can beef broth
1 cup celery, finely chopped
1 cup bell pepper, finely chopped
1 Tbsp minced garlic
1 Tbsp Cajun seasons
1 tsp sugar
salt & pepper to taste
2 1/2 cup water
1 Tbsp oil
1 tsp onion & garlic powder (optional)


1. Heat up a large pot over medium heat. Pour 1 Tbsp of oil into the pot.
2. Season ground pork and ground beef with Cajun seasons, sugar, salt and pepper. If using optional ingredients (garlic & onion powder) add now as well. Mix well and add to the heated pot.
3. Stir occasionally until brown. Then add in all chopped vegetables (garlic, celery, bell pepper, onion). Let vegetables cook down for 5 minutes.
4. Stir well, add 1 can of beef broth and 2 1/2 cups of water. Stir again.
5. Cover and let boil for 5 to 7 minutes. Taste the soup to see if it needs more salt and/or pepper.
6. Add in the raw, rinsed rice. Stir evenly and cover. Simmer at a lower heat for 15 minutes. Do not stir it while it simmers, but make sure that it doesn't run out of water and burn.
7. After 15 minutes, check the rice to make sure it is cooked. You can give it a few more minutes if you need. If the rice is done, turn off the stove and let it sit for 5 minutes, uncovered.
8. Before serving, gently fold/stir the rice. Serve as a side dish or a main dish if you really love it. Goes well with Yummy Spicy Garlic Beans & Sausage if you just can't get enough Cajun food!
