Instructions
• In a small pot, combine rice, 1¼ cups water (2¼ cups for 4 servings), stock concentrate, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. Keep covered off heat until ready to use in Step 4.
• Wash and dry produce. • Halve, peel, and dice onion into ¼-inch pieces. Dice celery into ¼-inch pieces. Halve, core, and dice bell pepper into ¼-inch pieces. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until translucent, 1-2 minutes. • Remove sausage from casing if necessary; discard casing. Add sausage to pan along with celery, bell pepper, scallion whites, Cajun Spice Blend, and paprika. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Swap in chicken sausage for pork sausage.
• Increase heat under pan with sausage mixture to high. Add another drizzle of oil and cooked rice; stir until well combined and warmed through. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat. • Divide dirty rice between bowls. Drizzle with smoky red pepper crema and sprinkle with scallion greens. Serve.
Chicken Sausage is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
