Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 pound breakfast sausage
1/2 cup celery diced
1/2 cup onion diced
1 cup bell pepper diced (I used red and green)
1 tablespoon Creole
2 cups long-grain rice rinsed and drained
2 cups chicken broth
1/4 cup Worcestershire
Parsley or Green onions optional

Instructions

You will start by turning your Instant Pot on the saute feature and add your ground beef and sausage to your pressure cooker. Cook until it is ground up.
Add in your diced celery, onion, bell pepper and stir in the mixed meat mixture.
Follow by adding your Creole seasoning, Worcestershire, and broth followed by your rinsed and drained rice. Mi well, making sure all the rice is in the liquid.
Turn your pressure cooker to low pressure and cook for 12 minutes. You can do this in the rice cooking setting if you have that on your Instant Pot as well.
Once your dirty rice is done cooking stir, and serve up! Top with parsley or diced green onions for the ultimate rice dinner recipe.

Notes

Meat- I used ground beef and breakfast sausage. The two added tons of flavor to the dish. You can leave one out and do just one meat, or swap with other meat.

Beans - Consider adding in some pinto beans or even red kidney beans. This could easily be a dirty rice and beans dish as well.

Stock - Chicken stock is what I used but you can even use a bone broth for added nutrients.

Storing - All leftovers need to be stored in an airtight container in the fridge. You can freeze leftovers for around 3 months. Just know the rice will become a bit softer in texture once it is thawed from being frozen.

Spice - You can add more or less Creole or Cajun seasoning to adjust the spice factor. Also, on the containers you can buy mild or spicy. For us, we do mild so it is a kid-friendly dinner.
