Cajun Rice Dressing
Ingredients
  • 1 (16-oz.) container of chopped onion mix
  • ½ stick butter
  • 2 T. minced garlic
  • 2 (16-oz.) frozen containers of rice dressing mix (I use Savoie’s and Richard’s brand), thawed
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped
  • Salt, red/black pepper, garlic powder
  • 6-8 c. cooked white rice
  • 1 bunch chopped parsley
Instructions
  1. In medium roasting pan, melt butter.
  2. Add thawed dressing mix, onions and garlic to melted butter.
  3. Break up dressing with spoon and mix the ingredients well and sauté until most of the moisture is cooked out of the mixture.
  4. Season with salt, red/black pepper, and garlic powder.
  5. Meanwhile, cook rice in rice cooker. You need for rice to be sticky kind not loose.
  6. At this point, I add the chopped green onions and parsley, turn off heat and cover until ready to serve.
  7. When ready to serve, heat up mixture. Turn off heat again and start adding cooked rice, a spoonful at a time and mix well.
  8. You add the amount of rice you like. Some people like lots of rice and others like less. So do what fits your taste best.
  9. Garnish with parsley and taste for seasoning.
Notes
Whenever I have leftover rice dressing mix, I like to stuff bell peppers or tomatoes with it. You can also add shrimp or crawfish to dressing mix and stuff the items.
