Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pound ground beef
½ pound bulk pork sausage
1 cup diced onion
½ cup diced red bell pepper
½ cup diced green bell pepper
¼ cup diced celery
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon ground paprika
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup beef broth
2 large bay leaves
4 ½ cups cooked rice
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley

Directions

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef and sausage; cook and stir, breaking into small pieces, until they begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Add onion, bell peppers, celery, and garlic. Continue to cook and stir until meat is fully browned, 3 to 4 minutes more. Stir in soy sauce, black pepper, paprika, oregano, Cajun seasoning, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt.
Stir in broth and bay leaves. Let simmer for 6 to 8 minutes. Fold in rice, 1 cup at a time, until fully coated. Mix in parsley. Simmer for 6 to 8 more minutes. Discard bay leaves and serve.

Cook's Notes:

You can use bacon grease instead of vegetable oil, and chicken broth or water instead of beef broth.

Using Cajun seasoning, bay leaves, soy sauce, garlic powder, paprika, and oregano is optional.
