Dirty rice is a staple of southern comfort food and it's easy to see why!
The tender meat is browned and sauteed with onions, peppers, celery and then finishes with a subtle and flavorful rice cajun seasoning to give it a complete meal!
I love all kinds of food from Cajun cajun chicken and shrimp gumbo; I can't get enough of it! This dirty Rice is just one of the more favorite among my collection!
Regardless of where you are from, rice (especially in a casserole of rice) is really an entertaining dish!
