KICK-ASS DIRTY RICE

Steps:

• 1. Cook your rice. The right way. See my cooking rice tutorial.
• 2. Dice your bell peppers, onion, and celery. Drizzle a few tablespoons of olive oil in the pan, or if you are feeling frisky - 2 tablespoons bacon grease - and cook those veggies till they are carmelized.
• 3. Crumble that raw ground beef (I use very lean) in with those veggies and them till browned together.
• In the meantime, toss those chicken livers in a pan and brown them. Then, put them through the food processor to make a pate of sorts.
• Now, combine the ground beef mixture with the chicken liver pate.
• Gently fold the cooked rice into this mixture.
• Add the cayenne, Parsley, Crystal, garlic powder, salt and pepper, and mix. Start with the smaller amounts of cayenne, salt, pepper, and Crystal, and add more if you want it.
• SERVE AND SMILE - you made some KICK-ASS DIRTY RICE!

DIXON GANG'S DIRTY RICE

Steps:

• Cook rice in pan according to directions, adding only the water and Swanson Veggie broth packet (if you don't have time for rice to cook completely, just get it started in the pan while the meat cooks. It will finish in the oven!).
• Meanwhile, in large skillet brown the meat, along with the finely chopped onion, green pepper, and garlic. Once cooked through, add the seasonings and pintos. Stir to mix and remove from heat.
• Place the cooked rice in a 13x9 casserole dish sprayed with Pam. Pour the tomato sauce on top of the rice. Refill the tomato sauce can with water; pour this on top of the rice as well. Stir well.
• Add the meat mixture to the rice in the casserole dish. Mix to combine. Taste to see if you'd like more chili powder, pepper, etc.
• Cover with foil & bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes, until rice is completely cooked and casserole is heated through. Serve with shredded cheese and/or sour cream if desired.

MADELINE ROSELAND'S DIRTY RICE

Steps:

• Cook rice in turkey stock in microwave or rice steamer.
• If using the steamer, reduce turkey stock to 2 cups.
• Sauté garlic and vegetables in butter until soft.
• Add ground meat and seasoning to sautéed vegetables.
• Brown until done.
• Do not drain liquid--this is not a low fat recipe!
• Just continue cooking until the liquid is reduced almost completely (leave it a little juicy) back into the meat and vegetable mixture. You don't want the rice runny, just moist.
• Stir meat mixture into rice and serve.
