Andouille Rice Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat the rice as the label directs. Combine in a large bowl with the scallion whites, tomato, andouille and cheese. Season with salt and pepper and mix well.
• Separate the biscuit dough into 8 equal pieces. Dust with flour and flatten each into a 6-inch round with a rolling pin; brush off any excess flour. Add about 1/3 cup of the rice mixture to the center of each, then fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges together to seal. Cut three slits in the top of each pie with a knife. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and brush with the beaten egg. Bake until the dough is puffed and golden and the filling is hot, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, halve the cucumber lengthwise, then thinly slice crosswise. Combine the cucumber, sugar and a few pinches of salt in a large bowl. Rub the seasonings into the cucumber slices, then let stand 5 minutes. Add the vinegar, scallion greens and parsley and toss to combine. Serve with the hand pies.

Steps:

• Slice the andouille sausage into thin coins on the bias.
• Add the olive oil to a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the sausage and onion and saute until the sausage is seared and browned. Add the garlic, peppers, squash and zucchini, season with salt and pepper and lightly saute about 2 minutes (you still want the zucchini and squash to have a bite and be very al dente). Add the rice to the pan with the sausage and veggies, stirring to coat the rice with all of the flavors. Add the stock and saffron. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook until the rice is done, 10 to 15 minutes. Fold in the diced tomatoes and parsley.

Steps:

• In a large saute pan, heat the oil. When the oil is hot, render the sausage for about 3 minutes. Add the onions, celery, and bell peppers and saute for 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are wilted. Add the corn bread and chicken stock and mix well. Season the dressing with salt and cayenne. Cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat. Season the entire turkey with Essence. Stuff the duck into the turkey. Stuff the remaining space with the dressing. Using butchers twine, tie the turkey to secure the ends
