CAJUN DIRTY RICE DRESSING



Cajun Dirty Rice Dressing image

My early years were split between rural east Texas and the heart of Louisiana's Cajun Country....back in my elementary days (before school lunches came frozen in boxes) this was a lunch room staple in Lafayette, Louisiana.....prepared daily by the mother's of my Cajun friends who worked part time in the school cafeteria. To this day a big helping of hot Dirty Rice takes me back to 4th grade! This recipe, from Chef Patrick Mould, calls for ground pork and beef only; which works well for me because, if I'm the one doing the cooking, I simply can not deal with chicken livers! This makes a LOT of Dirty Rice....so if your not cooking for a lunch room full of hungry kids, you may want to 1/2 or even 1/4 the recipe. For the 'dark roux' I recommend you reference recipe #47651 by chef #15851

Tips:

  • Use high-quality rice: Long-grain white rice is the traditional choice for Cajun rice dressing, but you can also use brown rice or wild rice for a healthier option.
  • Cook the rice properly: Be sure to cook the rice according to the package directions. It should be tender but not mushy.
  • Use flavorful broth: The broth you use to cook the rice will add a lot of flavor to the dressing. Use a good-quality chicken or vegetable broth, or even a homemade stock if you have it.
  • Don't be afraid to add some heat: Cajun rice dressing is typically spicy, so don't be afraid to add some cayenne pepper or other spices to your liking.
  • Add some vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, texture, and nutrients to the dressing. Try adding chopped celery, onions, bell peppers, or corn.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like parsley, thyme, and sage add a delicious flavor to the dressing. Be sure to chop them finely before adding them.
  • Don't overcook the dressing: The dressing should be cooked through, but it should not be mushy. Once the vegetables are tender and the rice is heated through, it's done.

Conclusion:

Cajun rice dressing is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or a main course. It's perfect for potlucks, picnics, and other gatherings. With a few simple tips, you can make a Cajun rice dressing that is sure to impress your friends and family.
