Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 28

3 cups chicken broth
1 cup long-grain white rice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 bay leaf
1 small bundle thyme, tied with twine
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 rib celery, diced
1/2 onion, diced
1/2 green bell pepper, diced
1 pint chicken livers and hearts, cleaned, diced small
8 ounces andouille sausage, casings removed, crumbled
1 ear corn, shucked, kernels removed
One 15.5-ounce can kidney beans, drained
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Salt
2 scallions, thinly sliced on the bias
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 airline chicken breasts
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
8 ounces green beans, trimmed

Steps:

  • For the dirty rice: Combine 2 cups of the chicken broth and the rice, garlic, bay leaf and thyme bundle in a medium pot. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer until the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove the bay leaf and thyme; fluff the rice.
  • Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the celery, onions and bell peppers and sweat the vegetables for about 5 minutes. Add the chicken hearts and livers, andouille and corn; cook until browned. Add the remaining 1 cup chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the pan to loosen any browned bits. Stir in the kidney beans. Add the garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, onion powder, oregano, thyme, red pepper flakes and 2 teaspoons salt. Simmer until the liquid reduces and everything is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Add the rice to the skillet and stir to combine. Remove from the heat. Sprinkle with the sliced scallions.
  • For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large ovenproof saute pan over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt all over and place them skin-side down in the pan. Sear both sides until golden brown. Add the butter and Worcestershire sauce and baste the chicken for a minute. With the breasts skin-side down, transfer the pan to the oven and cook until the internal temperature reads 160 degrees F, 10 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Prepare an ice water bath in a bowl. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans to the pot and cook until bright green, about 3 minutes. Remove the green beans and immediately shock them in the ice bath to stop cooking; drain. Heat the remaining tablespoon oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add the green beans and cook until warmed through and tender.
  • Serve the chicken with green beans and dirty rice.

Yield Serves 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 26

For the plain version:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 [3-4-pound (1.6-1.8-kg)] chicken, cut into 8 pieces, or 2-3 pounds (1.2-1.4 kg) chicken parts, patted dry
Salt and pepper
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 1/2 cups (275 g) long-grain white rice, rinsed
1 bay leaf
3 cups (720 ml) low-sodium chicken broth or water
1 cup (135 g) frozen peas (optional)
Handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped (optional)
For the dirty version:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 [3-4-pound (1.6-1.8-kg)] chicken, cut into 8 pieces, or 2-3 pounds (1.2-1.4 kg) chicken parts, patted dry
Salt and pepper
1/2 pound (225 g) mild pork sausages, casings removed or 1/4 pound (115 g) mild pork sausages, casings removed, plus 1/4 pound (115 g) chicken livers, roughly chopped
1/2 yellow onion, chopped

1 1/2 cups (275 g) long-grain white rice, rinsed
1 bay leaf
3 cups (720 ml) low-sodium chicken broth or water
Handful of sliced scallions (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large skillet or high-sided sauté pan with a lid, heat the oil and butter over medium-high heat until the foam from the butter begins to subside. Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper, then put it in the pan skin-side down. Cook-resisting the urge to repeatedly poke, prod, and look underneath-until it doesn't stick to the pan and is golden brown, about 6 minutes.
  • Flip the chicken over and cook for 5 minutes more. Transfer to a platter, then pour off all but about 2 tablespoons of the fat from the pan. Add the sausages and livers (if using) and cook over medium-high heat, stirring often and breaking up the meat, until browned, about 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and add the onions and, if using, the peppers, celery, garlic, and cayenne. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened, about 8 minutes. Add the rice and bay leaf and cook, stirring often, until the rice is lightly toasted, about 2 minutes.*
  • Add the broth, stir to combine, then add the reserved chicken, skin-side up, and any accumulated juices. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the chicken is just cooked through and the rice is tender, about 20 minutes (see Tip). Let the pan sit, covered, for 5 to 10 minutes after taking it off the heat. Taste the rice and stir in a little more salt and/or pepper, if needed, then sprinkle with parsley or scallions, if you like.
  • Make Ahead
  • Prepare up to * and refrigerate, covered, for up to 1 day. Let sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes before continuing with the recipe. You may need to add a few minutes to the cooking time.
  • Staggered
  • Serve hot or warm. It will keep, covered, in a 200°F (90°C) oven, for about 1 hour.
