Title: "Popeye's Dirty Rice"
Post by: Darling SilverDodger on April 13, 2007, 04:22:31 PM
We used to have a Popeye's in my neighborhood, but unfortunately it closed.  I always loved the side dishes that they offered.  This recipe for Popeye's Dirty Rice could not be more quick and easy!  Cook this up with some fried chicken, and you will be set!

1lb  Spicy breakfast sausage
1/2 cup long grain rice
1 (14oz) can of clear chicken broth
1 tsp dry minced onion

Brown the sausage in a skillet until cooked through.  As it cooks, crumble the sausage with a fork.
Stir in the broth, rice and minced onion.
Cover and simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender.  Most of the broth should be absorbed.

Southern Dirty Rice

Chicken gizzards and livers sauteed with onion and garlic, simmered with rice, broth and light seasoning.

Ingredients:

1/4 pound chicken gizzards, rinsed
1/2 pound chicken livers, rinsed and trimmed
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups uncooked white rice
4 cups chicken broth
0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup thinly sliced green onions


1. Pulse gizzards in food processor, then pulse livers.

2. Heat oil in a large saucepan. Saute onion and gizzards over medium heat, stirring constantly, until meat begins to brown (about 5 minutes). Add livers and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until brown (about 3 minutes).

3. Add rice and stir until coated with oil. Add broth, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer. Cover and cook about 20 minutes, until rice has absorbed liquid. Sprinkle with green onion and serve.
