• Salt and pepper to taste
• Large skillet
• Saucepan with lid

Directions:

I have been eating a bunch of this lately and you can cut out the whole cajun rice thing by just adding 2 cups of Chicken Stock to your mixture, then a cup of uncooked rice and simmer for 25 minutes covered in the same pot and that will do the rice in the dish to cook as well as cut off the processed ingredients of the boxed rice in this recipe. Just add more seasoning to the recipe to make up for the seasonings that were in the rice packet. Add the ground sausage, chicken, turkey or whatever you would have put in the rice into the vegetable browning process.
