Description
A delicious and flavorful fusion of shrimp, sausage, and rice cooked with a mix of spices.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 lb ground sausage
- 10–12 shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 4 cups cooked rice
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1.5 cups mixed onions and bell peppers, chopped
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- 1 teaspoon seafood seasoning
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1 tablespoon oregano
- 3 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon thyme
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Salt, to taste
- Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)
Instructions
- Season the shrimp with seafood seasoning. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the shrimp for 2–3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through, then remove and set aside.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the same skillet and brown the ground beef and sausage over medium heat, breaking it up with a wooden spoon. Once browned, add the chopped onions, bell peppers, and minced garlic, sautéing for about 5 minutes until softened.
- Stir in the oregano, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using). Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and stir well to combine.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for 5–7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the broth to thicken slightly.
- Add the cooked rice to the skillet and mix well, simmering for another 5 minutes to allow the rice to absorb the flavors.
- Gently fold the cooked shrimp back into the skillet and give it a final stir before serving hot.
Notes
- Adjust the spices to your preference for more or less heat.
- Pair with fresh herbs for garnish if desired.
