QUICK AND DIRTY RICE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat.
• Add sausage to pan and brown it, about 5 minutes. Flip it around once or twice, but don't mess with it too much or it won't brown.
• Add onions, garlic, peppers, salt and ground pepper. Stir to coat in oil and sauté until the onions just begin to soften.
• Add the rice, stir it around to coat, and let it brown for a minute.
• Add the stock and loosen any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet. Cover the skillet, reduce the heat way down, and simmer for 20 minutes. As with any rice dish cooked this way, don't lift the lid!
• After 20 minutes, turn off the heat, fluff the rice with a fork, replace the lid, and let it sit for about 5 minutes.
• Enjoy!
• Notes:.
• - You can use any cured sausage that you like. I like to use a good beef and jalapeño kielbasa or country sausage.
• - To get the prettiest little ribbons of poblano pepper, cut the pepper into quarters and thinly slice across the quarters.
• - Chicken or beef stock would work just as well as the veggie stock. I use the veggie stock because I always have a fresh batch on hand.
• - If you've never made your own veggie stock, give it a try! It's super easy, nearly free, and adds a ton of flavor to whatever you're cooking. Plus, YOU control the ingredients.
• - Adjust the salt and pepper to your taste, and maybe jazz it up by adding other spices such as cumin, chili powder, coriander -- whatever strikes your fancy! The basic recipe is tasty on its own, but a cook can always play!

DIRTY RICE

Steps:

• Rinse the rice in a strainer under cold water until the water runs clear. Heat the stock in a medium saucepan over high until boiling. Stir in the rice and 1 ½ teaspoons Creole seasoning, then reduce heat to low to maintain a simmer. Cover the saucepan and cook until the water has evaporated and the rice no longer has any bite, 12 to 15 minutes. If the water evaporates before the rice is done (bite into a grain to see if it's fully cooked), add ¼ cup water, cover and continue cooking. Once the rice is ready, stir in the butter and set aside while preparing the rest of the dirty rice.
• Finely chop the chicken livers. Transfer to a large bowl and add the beef, pork, 1 tablespoon hot sauce, 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning and ½ teaspoon salt. Stir to combine.
• Heat 3 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers. Add the meat and cook, stirring to break it up, until all of the meat is evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer the meat to a plate using a slotted spoon. Discard all but 2 teaspoons fat from the skillet.
• Add the remaining teaspoon oil to the skillet and heat over medium until the oil shimmers. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 7 minutes. Add the bell pepper and celery, and cook until softened, about 7 minutes more. Stir in the garlic and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, remaining tablespoon hot sauce and ½ teaspoon salt. Return the meat to the skillet and add the cooked rice. Stir until combined and heated through. Taste and add more salt, Creole seasoning or hot sauce as desired. Stir in the scallion greens and parsley, and serve warm.
