Ingredients:

1 lb ground beef

1/2 lb ground pork

1 medium onion, diced

1 green bell pepper, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup long-grain white rice

2 cups chicken broth

1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes

1 tbsp Creole seasoning

1/2 tsp dried thyme

1/2 tsp dried oregano

1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

 

Directions:

Cook the Meat:

In a large skillet or Dutch oven, cook the ground beef and ground pork over medium heat until browned, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain excess fat if needed.

Sauté Vegetables:

Add the diced onion, green bell pepper, and minced garlic to the skillet with the meat. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.

Add Rice and Liquids:

Stir in the rice, chicken broth, diced tomatoes (with their juice), Creole seasoning, dried thyme, dried oregano, and cayenne pepper if using.

Simmer:

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.

Season and Serve:

Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
