Cajun Rice

I thought I shoud also give you my recipe for Cajun Rice to go with the last post!

It is a welcome addition to any Southwestern or Mexican main course.  And yes you need to use the Converted Rice (Think Uncle Ben's Brand)

2 C Converted rice

2-1/2 C Chicken broth

1-1/2 TBL Unsalted butter, melted

1-1/2 TBL Celery, chopped fine

1-1/2 TBL Red bell pepper, chopped fine

1-1/2 TBL White onion, chopped fine

1/2 TSP Salt

1/8 TSP Cayenne

1/8 TSP Onion powder

1/8 TSP Granulated garlic

1/8 TSP White pepper

1/8 TSP Black pepper

1. In a small covered baking dish, combine all ingredients.  Mix well and cover with lid.  Bake at 350º for about 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until rice is tender.
