🍚🌶️ Louisiana Dirty Rice 🌾🍗

Ingredients:

1 lb ground pork or beef 🍖
1/2 lb chicken livers, finely chopped (optional) 🍗
1 1/2 cups long-grain rice 🍚
1 small onion, finely diced 🧅
1 bell pepper, finely diced 🫑
2 celery stalks, diced 🌱
3 cloves garlic, minced 🧄
1 tbsp Cajun seasoning 🌶️
1/2 tsp dried thyme 🌿
1/2 tsp smoked paprika 🌶️
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional) 🔥
2 1/2 cups chicken broth 🍲
2 tbsp vegetable oil 🛢️
Salt and black pepper to taste 🧂
3 green onions, chopped (for garnish) 🌿
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish) 🌿

Directions:

Cook the meat:
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground pork or beef and chicken livers (if using) and cook until browned, breaking the meat up into small pieces. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Sauté the vegetables:
Add the onion, bell pepper, celery, and garlic to the skillet. Cook until the vegetables are soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
Season and simmer:
Stir in the Cajun seasoning, thyme, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes to toast the spices and release their flavors.
Cook the rice:
Add the rice to the skillet and stir well to coat it with the seasonings and meat. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Garnish and serve:
Fluff the rice with a fork and stir in the green onions and parsley. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Enjoy:
Serve hot as a side dish or main course, and enjoy the bold flavors of Louisiana!

Prep Time:

Tips:

Jalapeño Popper Soup – Creamy, Cheesy, and Deliciously Spicy! 🌶️🧀🥣

This Jalapeño Popper Soup is a rich, comforting dish with all the flavors of a classic jalapeño popper – creamy cheese, smoky bacon, and a touch of heat. Perfect for warming up on a chilly day!

Ingredients:
4 slices bacon, chopped
1 tbsp butter
1 small onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
4-5 jalapeños, seeded and diced (leave seeds for more heat)
3 cups chicken broth
1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies (optional, for extra flavor)
1/2 cup heavy cream or half-and-half
4 oz cream cheese, softened and cubed
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Fresh cilantro or green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Directions:
Cook the Bacon:
In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the bacon drippings in the pot.

Sauté the Vegetables:
Add butter to the pot with the bacon drippings. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic and diced jalapeños, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Add Broth and Tomatoes:
Pour in the chicken broth and add the diced tomatoes with green chilies if using. Bring the soup to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Make it Creamy:
Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream, cream cheese, and shredded cheddar. Stir continuously until the cheeses are fully melted and the soup is smooth.

Season and Serve:
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Ladle the soup into bowls, top with crispy bacon, and garnish with fresh cilantro or green onions.

Enjoy:
Serve hot with crusty bread or tortilla chips for dipping. This soup is a creamy, spicy delight!
