Best Easy Dirty Rice Recipes

DIRTY RICE (EASY)

Steps:

• Brown the sausage making a small crumble mixture in a skillet until cooked through.
• Stir in the broth, rice and minced onion.
• Cover and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender. Most of the broth should be absorbed. Make sure to turn the heat off and let it stand covered for at least 5 minutes!

EASY DIRTY RICE WITH CAJUN SPICED GRAVY

Steps:

• 1. Heat olive oil in heavy skillet. When olive oil is hot, add onions and andouille sausage. Saute until onions are transparent and sausage is browned. Set aside.
• 2. In Pampered Chef rice cooker, add chicken broth. Stir in rice and seasonings. Add onions and sausage, stir well. Place cover on rice cooker and microwave on high for 20 minutes.
• 3. Remove cooker from microwave and remove cover. Add a small amount of butter, if desired and fluff with fork, making sure all liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. You may cover and return to microwave for about 5 more minutes if necessary. Serve with Cajun Spiced Gravy (directions to follow).
• 4. CAJUN SPICED GRAVY: Melt butter in heavy saucepan. When butter is melted, whisk in flour until well blended. Combine broth, milk and seasonings and slowly whisk into butter mixture. Bring to a boil on medium heat, stirring constantly and cook until thickened. If gravy seems too thin, mix about a tablespoon of flour with a little milk to make a thin paste and whisk in a little at a time until desired thickness is reached. If mixture seems too thick, you may add a little more milk. Remove from heat and transfer to serving dish to serve with dirty rice.
• 5. SPECIAL NOTE: This rice dish can be made on top of the stove in a heavy saucepan, but reduce the broth from three cups to two cups. In my experience, the Pampered Chef cooker requires more liquid than the stove top.
