This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

A deliciously simply one pot Cajun creation. Thanks to the ground beef it's super satisfying, while Creole seasoning along with diced peppers and onions give it that comfort food flavor you know and love.

ingredients
1 pound lean ground beef
1/2 cup finely diced bell pepper
1/3 cup diced green onions

1 teaspoon Creole seasoning
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 cups cooked long grain rice
1/4 cup water (more as needed)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

In fry pan stir ground beef and bell pepper. Cook over medium high heat until beef loses its pink color and bell pepper is soft. Remove excess grease. Turn temperature down to medium or medium low.
Add remaining ingredients; stir and cook together until ground beef is completely cooked and liquid is gone - about 25 to 35 minutes. More Creole seasoning and red pepper may be added for taste.

This recipe was pretty good although I think it should read "4 cups cooked long grain rice" as 4 cups raw rice will yield about 8 cups cooked - which would feed way more people. Or, maybe it just depends on how ricey vs beefy you want your dish!
It does say to use cooked rice

AMAZING! It was easy to prepare and had all of the flavor that I hoped for. The only tweaks I made included: 1) Use 3 cups of rice as opposed to 4 and 2) Use brown rice for better texture. One piece of advice: Make sure to mince onions VERY finely...

I had to adjust this a bit as I had some leftover rice to use so I scaled it down to serve two people. I think I did ok as it tasted pretty good!

I thought this recipe was delicious. I did cut the amount of rice in half. As far as the other reviewer stating it was bland, the recipe did state to add more cajun and red pepper to taste once everything was combined. So if you did that there is no way it would be bland. Will make again.
Very bland, not enough seasoning, too much rice on recipe.
I was in the process of making stuffed cabbage, I had ssome beef and rice mixure left ( riced cooked, beef is raw) any recipes as to what I can make? Thanks
