"Cajun Crack" Dirty Rice

Firstly, you may notice a difference in my recipe in contrast to the "traditional" one. Chicken giblets are bit rich for my palette and the chicken thighs to me are a better substitute and still make it "dirty". We don't have the same type of sausage (Andouille) that we get in Texas/Louisiana here in New Zealand, so the mince is a nice substitute and the shrimp (prawns)...well why not?!? Everything is better with shrimp.

A true southern yummy dish! Traditional cajun dirty rice is usually made with chicken livers and gizzards. I personally dont care for em so I use the boudain that contains a small amount of pork liver that I cant see mixed in with the sausage lol Still comes out extremely good! sammie27 -
