Belizean Style Dirty Rice

This variation of the traditional Dirty Rice is very easy to make and goes well with either chicken, pork or beef. This is the only recipe I follow for dirty rice and it yields enough for about 8 people. If you only want to cook 2 cups of rice, use 1 stick of margarine and 2 1/2 cups of beef broth. Use the 2 cans of french onion soup and the mushrooms.

Belizean Style Dirty Rice

Ingredients

3 cups of long grain rice
2 cans French Onion Soup (10.5 oz each)
1 carton Beef Broth (32 oz)
2 sticks margarine
1 small can mushrooms stems & pieces (You can add a 10.5 oz if you like lots of mushrooms)

Directions

In a large pot heat the margarine on high until it's half way melted. Add the rice and sauté for about 2 minutes stirring periodically. Once the rice has turned opaque, stir in the french onion soup, beef broth and mushrooms. Do not stir again, but continue cooking uncovered and on high for about 2 minutes or until the liquids start to show signs of boiling. DO NOT let it to come to a full boil before lowering the heat, or your rice will burn before it's fully cooked. Reduce heat to medium low, cover and cook for 20 minutes. Turn off heat and fluff the entire pot of rice. Let it stand for about 5 minutes before serving.

Enjoy!
