A delightful dish infused with Cajun and Creole spices, combining ground meat, aromatic vegetables, and fluffy rice.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup long-grain rice
  • 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 1/2 pound ground pork
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and pork. Cook until browned, then drain the excess fat.
  2. Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are tender.
  3. Stir in the rice, chicken broth, Cajun seasoning, Creole seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.
  5. Fluff the rice with a fork and garnish with sliced green onions before serving.

Notes

Consider adding diced Cajun sausage for extra flavor. Using fresh vegetables will enhance the dish’s flavor.
