Hearty rice with ground meat, peppers, and Cajun spices cooked in one skillet for rich, savory flavors.

# Ingredients:

01 - 5 tablespoons butter
02 - 1/2 yellow onion, diced
03 - 3 celery stalks, diced
04 - 2 bell peppers, diced
05 - 1 pound ground beef
06 - 1 pound ground pork sausage
07 - 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
08 - 1 teaspoon onion powder
09 - 1/2 teaspoon paprika
10 - Salt to taste
11 - Black pepper to taste
12 - 2 cups minute rice
13 - 2 cups chicken broth

# Steps:

01 - In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the butter and allow it to melt. Once melted, add the diced onions, bell peppers, and celery. Sauté the vegetables for 7-8 minutes until they start to soften.
02 - Add the ground beef and sausage to the skillet. Cook until no pink is visible in the meat, then drain off any excess grease.
03 - Season the meat mixture with Cajun seasoning, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper to taste. Add the minute rice and chicken broth. Stir to combine and cover with a lid.
04 - Bring the mixture to a light simmer, stir occasionally, and cook until all the broth has been absorbed and the rice is fully cooked. Serve and enjoy.
