Cajun Dirty Rice
Cajun Dirty Rice is a traditional Creole dish from Louisiana that consists of white rice cooked with a variety of ingredients such as ground meat (typically pork or chicken), diced vegetables like onions, bell peppers, and celery, and seasonings like garlic, cayenne pepper, and paprika. The dish gets its "dirty" appearance from the mix of ingredients and seasonings that give the rice a flavorful and slightly spicy kick.
