Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Rice
Rinse the long grain white rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch.
Cook the Meats and Vegetables
In a large skillet or pot, brown the ground beef over medium heat until fully cooked. Drain excess fat. Add chopped onion, green bell pepper, celery, and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Combine Ingredients
Stir in the rinsed rice, chicken broth, bay leaves, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Simmer
Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 20-25 minutes or until the rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Final Touch
Remove bay leaves and fluff the rice with a fork. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions.
