DIRTY RICE
Dirty rice gets its color from caramelized sirloin and the roux - flour browned (but not burned) in oil. The New Orleans-based chef Isaac Toups offers a 15-minute roux shortcut in his book "Chasing the Gator," but you may find your roux browns more quickly in the smoking hot oil. Be sure to stir, stir, stir once you add the flour. You cannot walk away from the pot while making this roux. Prep the "trinity" - bell peppers, onion and celery - in advance as you won't have time to do it while the roux cooks. When the roux turns the color of milk chocolate, toss in the chopped vegetables to stop the roux from cooking any further. Instead of adding rice and the serving components, you could do as Mr. Toups suggests and use the meat gravy as a base for a lasagna ragu. Just throw in some fresh tomatoes and cook it down "until it's nice and tight" and make it your lasagna filling.

Steps:
- Sear the meat: Season the sirloin - just use it how it comes out of the tray from the grocery store - with 1 teaspoon of salt on each side.
- In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until it starts to smoke. Place the sirloin in the skillet in one piece and let it sear until it browns and caramelizes, 3 to 5 minutes. Then flip it and repeat, 3 to 5 minutes longer.
- Once the block of sirloin is well browned - nearly caramelized, chop it up in the pan with a metal spatula to sear the inside bits. Add the black pepper, cumin and cayenne and stir well. Cook for a minute. Add the beer to deglaze the pan, and cook 1 minute longer, scraping up any browned bits. Remove from the heat and set aside. At this point, you could freeze the meat.
- Make the gravy: Start by making a dark roux. Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over high heat until it just starts to smoke. Add the flour and immediately start stirring with a long-handled spoon. Stir constantly, scraping the bottom and edges well to keep the flour from burning. Once it's the color of milk chocolate, anywhere from 4 to 15 minutes (the most important thing to watch is the color of the roux), add the onion, bell pepper, and celery and stir together. Cook for a minute. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute longer. Add the beer and mix well.
- In 1/3-cup increments, add the stock, stirring well between each addition. Reduce heat to low and stir frequently, but not continuously, until you have a well-emulsified gravy, thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 4 minutes.
- Once the gravy is done, add the cooked beef. Bring the meat and gravy mixture back to a bare simmer. Cover and cook for 1 1/2 hours, or until the sauce has no chalky or floury flavor.
- Make the rice: While the gravy is cooking, put rice, 2 cups water, salt and bay leaf in a 4-quart saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and bring to a bare simmer. Stir, cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and let steam in the covered pan for another 10 minutes, until all water is absorbed. Fluff with fork. Spread it out in a single layer on a baking sheet and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- To serve: Add the cooked rice, butter and scallions to the meat gravy in the pot. Stir it all together over low heat, just to warm it all through. Add salt to taste and serve.

DIRTY RICE
The name for this dish comes from how it looks, as the rice grains are speckled with bits of ground meat and seasonings. This version uses chicken livers instead of the common combination of both gizzards and livers to offer a distinct flavor profile. Dirty rice is similar to rice dressing, but it isn't relegated to just holiday tables. In fact, you'd be hard pressed to find a spread in Louisiana without it. A much beloved side dish, it's also worthy of being at the center of the plate as a hearty, rustic main dish. If you have leftover rice, you can skip the first two steps and adjust the seasonings to taste.

Steps:
- Rinse the rice in a strainer under cold water until the water runs clear. Heat the stock in a medium saucepan over high until boiling. Stir in the rice and 1 ½ teaspoons Creole seasoning, then reduce heat to low to maintain a simmer. Cover the saucepan and cook until the water has evaporated and the rice no longer has any bite, 12 to 15 minutes. If the water evaporates before the rice is done (bite into a grain to see if it's fully cooked), add ¼ cup water, cover and continue cooking. Once the rice is ready, stir in the butter and set aside while preparing the rest of the dirty rice.
- Finely chop the chicken livers. Transfer to a large bowl and add the beef, pork, 1 tablespoon hot sauce, 1 teaspoon Creole seasoning and ½ teaspoon salt. Stir to combine.
- Heat 3 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers. Add the meat and cook, stirring to break it up, until all of the meat is evenly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer the meat to a plate using a slotted spoon. Discard all but 2 teaspoons fat from the skillet.
- Add the remaining teaspoon oil to the skillet and heat over medium until the oil shimmers. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 7 minutes. Add the bell pepper and celery, and cook until softened, about 7 minutes more. Stir in the garlic and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
- Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, remaining tablespoon hot sauce and ½ teaspoon salt. Return the meat to the skillet and add the cooked rice. Stir until combined and heated through. Taste and add more salt, Creole seasoning or hot sauce as desired. Stir in the scallion greens and parsley, and serve warm.
DIRTY, DIRTY RICE
Believe it or not, the first place I ever had dirty rice was at Popeyes®. They were out of the red beans and rice. I'd never been a huge fan of liver before, but not only have I come to love dirty rice, I've also started to crave it with even more "dirt," i.e. more liver, pork, and aromatic vegetables, hence this redundantly named dish. While the traditional method cooks the rice first before "soiling" it, here we add all the "filth" at the beginning and cook it into the rice.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a high-sided pan over medium-high heat. Cook and stir pork until well browned and fat is rendered, 5 to 7 minutes. Add onion, celery, and bell pepper; saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in paprika, cumin, black pepper, cayenne, garlic powder, oregano, and thyme. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables continue to soften, about 5 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium and add andouille sausage. Cook and stir to release some flavor, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in chicken livers and rice until well coated. Season with salt, pour in broth, and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add bay leaf and Worcestershire sauce. Cover tightly; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, without stirring, until most of the liquid is absorbed and rice is starting to get tender, about 25 minutes.
- Add green onions and parsley; mix well. Continue cooking over low to medium-low heat until rice is tender, about 10 minutes more. Taste for seasoning and remove bay leaf before serving.

DIRTY RICE WITH MUSHROOMS
This vegetarian version of Southern dirty rice replaces the traditional ground beef and chicken livers with hearty mushrooms, creamy black-eyed peas and flavorful spices for a satisfying one-pot meal. The recipe starts with the classic Cajun holy trinity - onion, green bell pepper and celery in equal parts - to create a flavorful foundation. Mushroom broth adds even more depth and reinforces the earthy cremini mushrooms, while a drizzle of hot sauce adds tang and kick. Serve with simple leafy greens or chopped salad.
